The earliest maturing pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millspaugh] germplasm bred at ICRISAT

Abstract: Adaptation of pigeonpea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millspaugh], a short-day species, is restricted due to its sensitivity to photo-period. Earliness in this crop is reported to be linearly associated with photoinsensitivity; and this provides an opportunity to breed widely adapted cultivars through the selection for earliness. This research note reports breeding of the earliest maturing pigeonpea germplasm at ICRISAT. This germplasm, nicknamed as 'super early' and bred through the selection of transgressive segregant… Show more

“…For TGS estimation, the value of the lower parent value was considered and the maximum frequency TGS (15.38%) was observed in cross IC 632961  Arka Sukomal followed by 12.2% and 3.08% in cross IC 632961  Arka Arjun and Arka Arjun  IC 632961 respectively in F 2 generation which may be due to non-additivity allelic interaction between loci or epistasis. Reports confirmed that transgressive segregation shown elevating potential premating barriers like flowering time in pigeon pea (Srivastava and Saxena, 2019). The results were in conformity with Aditya et al (2013) in soybean crosses and Kshirsagar et al (2013) in tomato who reported transgressive segregation for days to first flowering in F 3 generation.…”

“…Pigeonpea is not grown commercially in California currently, but efforts are underway to breed pigeonpea with early maturity and short plant height, adapted to irrigated production conditions (Huynh and Roberts, personal communication). Pigeonpea growers need cultivars that can be planted throughout the year, possess early (130–140 d) or mid‐early maturity (150–160 d) (Saxena et al., 2019; Srivastava & Saxena, 2019), optimum plant height (<2.0 m), and determinate growth habit, which facilitates mechanical direct harvesting. Currently, the local cultivars such as ‘Cortada’ (Bosques‐Vega, Vélez‐Colón, & Acosta‐Villegas, 2000a) and ‘Guerrero’ (Bosques‐Vega, Vélez‐Colón, & Acosta‐Villegas, 2000b) are sensitive to photoperiod and, therefore, are recommended to be planted in the short‐daylength period (generally October–December) to decrease their days to harvest.…”

“…), for seed yield per plant (Chahota et al, 2007); peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.), for characters such as total biomass, crop index, sprout weight, root weight, mature pod weight, and grain weight per plant (Shreya et al, 2017); rice, for flowering days (Koide et al, 2019); and pigeon pea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp. ], for earliness (Srivastava & Saxena, 2019). In pea, transgressive segregation was analyzed for quality characters (Ubayasena et al, 2011).…”
