Abstract:
Bibliography: leaves 182-217. This study was conducted to determine the etiology of a blight disease of chickpea in south-eastern Australia and the factors affecting disease development. The disease had previously been identified as phoma blight. Pathogenicity testing revealed two isolates subsequently identified as Asochyta rabiei, the first conclusive identification in the southern hemisphere. Greenhouse screening of chickpea varieties identified types resistant to ascochyta blight. The effects of plant age and environmental conditions on disease development were investigated under controlle

Iron deficiency is a global problem, and one way to reduce it is through biofortification. In this thesis, the iron content of chickpea was improved by genetic modification (GM) with the plant iron metabolism genes, nicotianamine synthase (NAS) and ferritin (FER). Several chickpea cultivars were assessed, and a low-iron cultivar selected for further improvement. A novel chickpea NAS2 gene was also studied for use in this approach, providing greater insight into iron metabolism in plants. Ultimately, GM chickpea were successfully produced, and up to 1.3-fold increase in seed iron content was ac

<p> Legume crops are significant agriculturally and environmentally for their ability to form symbiosis with specific soil bacteria capable of nitrogen fixation. Nitrogen fixation for a given legume in a given soil is limited by the availability of the plant&rsquo;s bacterial partners, and by variation in the effectiveness of those symbionts. We used a global-level hierarchical sampling scheme to comprehensively characterize the evolutionary relationships and distributional limitations of nitrogen-fixing bacterial symbionts of the legume crop chickpea. This has been accomplished using culture-

Abstract:
Chickpea is one of the most important leguminous crops grown in regions of southern Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and the United States. Ascochyta blight, caused by Ascochyta rabiei, is the most important foliar disease of chickpea. In favorable conditions, this disease can destroy the entire chickpea field within a few days. In this project the secreted proteins of Ascochyta rabiei have been characterized through one and two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. This is the first proteomic study of the A. rabiei secretome, and a standardized technique to study the secreted proteome

Abstract:
The potential applications of chickpea proteins (Cicer arietinum L. cv Kaniva) as food ingredients have been investigated and presented in three major parts of this thesis. The first part identified different extraction conditions and their effects on the extraction yield and characteristics of the isolated proteins. The second part defined the functional properties of these isolated proteins and relevant factors affecting their behaviour. The third part investigated the effects of chemical and enzymatic modifications on the composition, structural characteristics, functional and flow prope

Abstract:
Low levels of polymorphism and lack of sufficient numbers of molecular markers such as microsatellite or simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are the main constraints in chickpea improvement. Hence to increase the number of SSR markers, 1,655 novel SSRs were developed from SSR-enriched genomic library (311) and mining the BAC-end sequences (1,344). These markers, along with already available markers were tested for polymorphism on parental genotypes of the inter-specific (ICC 4958 × PI 489777) and intra-specific mapping population (ICC 4958 × ICC 1882). As a result, a comprehensive inter-specific ge

Abstract:
Sterility mosaic disease (SMD), an important biotic constraint on pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L) Millsp.) in the Indian subcontinent, is caused by Pigeonpea sterility mosaic virus and transmitted by the eriophyid mite. Investigations were carried out to develop F2:3 mapping population involving resistant (ICP 7035) and susceptible (TTB 7) parents, development of EST SSR markers, construction of linkage map and identification of QTLs for SMD resistance. F1s of the susceptible × resistant cross were susceptible indicating susceptibility to be dominant over resistance. The pattern of frequency dist
