The ricebean genome provides insight into <i>Vigna</i> genome evolution and facilitates genetic enhancement Open
Ricebean [Vigna umbellata (Thunb.) Ohwi and Ohashi] (2n = 2x = 22) is a warm-season dietary pulse legume crop and was originated in the Indo-China region. It is known to provide food security to the small and marginal farmers of South and …

Transcriptional signatures modulating shoot apical meristem morphometric and plant architectural traits enhance yield and productivity in chickpea Open
Summary Plant height (PH) and plant width (PW), two of the major plant architectural traits determining the yield and productivity of a crop, are defined by diverse morphometric characteristics of the shoot apical meristem (SAM). The ident…
