Maintenance Breeding in Pigeonpea [<span><i>Cajanus cajan</i></span> (L.) Millspaugh] — An Assessment and Advanced Strategies Open
The sustainable maintenance breeding of pigeonpea germplasm, genetic stocks, released cultivars, and hybrid parents is a tough job. The prime reason for their genetic contamination is the insect‐aided cross‐pollination. Although various pu…
