    • Characterization and mapping of Dt1 locus which co‑segregates with CcTFL1 for growth habit in pigeonpea 

      Saxena, Rachit K; Obala, Jimmy; Sinjushin, Andrey; Kumar, C.V. Sameer; Saxena, K.B.; Varshney, Rajeev K. (Theor Appl Genet, 2017)
      Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) is one of the most important legume crops grown in arid and semi-arid regions of the world. It is characterized with few unique features compared with other legume species, such as Lotus, ...

    • Genomics-assisted breeding for boosting crop improvement in pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) 

      Pazhamala, Lekha; Saxena, Rachit K.; Singh, Vikas K.; Sameerkumar, C. V.; Kumar, Vinay; Sinha, Pallavi; Patel, Kishan; Obala, Jimmy; Kaoneka, Seleman R.; Tongoona, P.; Shimelis, Hussein A.; Gangarao, N. V. P. R.; Odeny, Damaris; Rathore, Abhishek; Dharmaraj, P. S.; Yamini, K. N.; Varshney, Rajeev K. (Frontiers in plant science, 2015)
      Pigeonpea is an important pulse crop grown predominantly in the tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world. Although pigeonpea growing area has considerably increased, yield has remained stagnant for the last six ...

    • QTL-seq for the identification of candidate genes for days to flowering and leaf shape in pigeonpea 

      Singh, Vikas; Sinha, Pallavi; Obala, Jimmy; Khan, Aamir W.; Chitikinen, Annapurna; Saxena, Rachit K.; Varshney, Rajeev K. (Heredity, 2022)
      To identify genomic segments associated with days to flowering (DF) and leaf shape in pigeonpea, QTL-seq approach has been used in the present study. Genome-wide SNP profiling of extreme phenotypic bulks was conducted for ...

    • Seed protein content and its relationships with agronomic traits in pigeonpea is controlled by both main and epistatic efects QTLs 

      Obala, Jimmy; Saxena, Rachit K.; Singh, Vikas K.; Kale, Sandip M.; Garg, Vanika; Kumar, C.V. Sameer; Saxena, K. B.; Tongoona, Pangirayi; Sibiya, Julia; Varshney, Rajeev K. (Scientific Reports, 2020)
      The genetic architecture of seed protein content (SPC) and its relationships to agronomic traits in pigeonpea is poorly understood. Accordingly, fve F2 populations segregating for SPC and four agronomic traits (seed ...
