Abstract

Zero hunger and good health could be realized by 2030 through effective conservation, characterization and utilization of germplasm resources.sup.1. So far, few chickpea (Cicerarietinum) germplasm accessions have been characterized at the genome sequence level.sup.2. Here we present a detailed map of variation in 3,171 cultivated and 195 wild accessions to provide publicly available resources for chickpea genomics research and breeding. We constructed a chickpea pan-genome to describe genomic diversity across cultivated chickpea and its wild progenitor accessions. A divergence tree using genes present in around 80% of individuals in one species allowed us to estimate the divergence of Cicer over the last 21 million years. Our analysis found chromosomal segments and genes that show signatures of selection during domestication, migration and improvement. The chromosomal locations of deleterious mutations responsible for limited genetic diversity and decreased fitness were identified in elite germplasm. We identified superior haplotypes for improvement-related traits in landraces that can be introgressed into elite breeding lines through haplotype-based breeding, and found targets for purging deleterious alleles through genomics-assisted breeding and/or gene editing. Finally, we propose three crop breeding strategies based on genomic prediction to enhance crop productivity for 16 traits while avoiding the erosion of genetic diversity through optimal contribution selection (OCS)-based pre-breeding. The predicted performance for 100-seed weight, an important yield-related trait, increased by up to 23% and 12% with OCS- and haplotype-based genomic approaches, respectively. Whole-genome sequencing of 3,171 cultivated and 195 wild chickpea accessions is used to construct a chickpea pan-genome, providing insight into chickpea evolution and enabling breeding strategies that could improve crop productivity., Author(s): Rajeev K.

Abstract

Summary: Professor Rajeev K. Varshney's transformative impact on crop genomics, genetics, and agriculture is the result of his passion, dedication, and unyielding commitment to harnessing the potential of genomics to address the most pressing challenges faced by the global agricultural community. Starting from a small town in India and reaching the global stage, Professor Varshney's academic and professional trajectory has inspired many scientists active in research today. His ground‐breaking work, especially his effort to list orphan tropical crops to genomic resource‐rich entities, has been transformative. Beyond his scientific achievements, Professor Varshney is recognized by his colleagues as an exemplary mentor, fostering the growth of future researchers, building institutional capacity, and strengthening scientific capability. His focus on translational genomics and strengthening seed system in developing countries for the improvement of agriculture has made a tangible impact on farmers' lives. His skills have been best utilized in roles at leading research centres where he has applied his expertise to deliver a new vision for crop improvement. These efforts have now been recognized by the Royal Society with the award of the Fellowship (FRS). As we mark this significant milestone in his career, we not only celebrate Professor Varshney's accomplishments but also his wider contributions that continue to transform the agricultural landscape.

Abstract

Chickpea (Cicer arietinumL.)—an important legume crop cultivated in arid and semiarid regions—has limited genetic diversity. Efforts are being undertaken to broaden its diversity by utilizing its wild relatives, which remain largely unexplored. Here, we present the Cicersuper-pangenome based on the de novo genome assemblies of eight annual Cicerwild species. We identified 24,827 gene families, including 14,748 core, 2,958 softcore, 6,212 dispensable and 909 species-specific gene families. The dispensable genome was enriched for genes related to key agronomic traits. Structural variations between cultivated and wild genomes were used to construct a graph-based genome, revealing variations in genes affecting traits such as flowering time, vernalization and disease resistance. These variations will facilitate the transfer of valuable traits from wild Cicerspecies into elite chickpea varieties through marker-assisted selection or gene-editing. This study offers valuable insights into the genetic diversity and potential avenues for crop improvement in chickpea.

Abstract

Context: Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) are highly sensitive to elevated salinity, particularly at initial seedling establishment stage. Seedling screening would be an effective means to identify novel sources of donors for salt tolerance. Aim: This study aimed to identify salt stress tolerant genotypes at seedling stage from 50 chickpea accessions. Methods: The screening of 50 chickpea accessions was done under two salinity conditions including salt stress (8 dS m−1) and control (no salt stress). Accessions were studied for morphological traits, root system architectural analysis, and CSTI (Cumulative salt tolerance index). Further, principal component analysis was conducted to validate these results for more accuracy and reliability. Key results: For morphological traits, a high degree of genetic variation was seen among genotypes, and root traits were found to be the better indicators of salt stress tolerance. CSTI was used to classify the accessions; 22 (44%) were identified as salt sensitive, 21 (42%) were found to be moderately salt tolerant, and 7 (14%) had moderate to high salt tolerance. The most salt tolerant and salt sensitive genotypes were found to be ICCV10 and ILC5595, respectively. Conclusions: Early seedling screening has a great potential to identify genotypes with robust root systems, which can withstand salinity. Implications: We used a novel approach to classify chickpea landraces based on the combination of CSTI and principal component analysis methods. By choosing suitable donors and prospective genotypes at early growth stages, the knowledge gathered from this study may aid scientists and chickpea breeders in developing salt tolerant cultivars. Salinity is a major problem in chickpea; landraces were used to identify novel sources using a seedling screening technique. We find two analysis methods (cumulative salt tolerance index and principal components analysis) that enable salt tolerant genotypes to be identified; and both techniques were equally reliable.. We identified ICCV10, CSG8962, ILC11902, IG5980, IG5893 as five salt tolerant genotypes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Crop domestication is a co-evolutionary process that has rendered plants and animals significantly dependent on human interventions for survival and propagation. Grain legumes have played an important role in the development of Neolithic agriculture some 12,000 years ago. Despite being early companions of cereals in the origin and evolution of agriculture, the understanding of grain legume domestication has lagged behind that of cereals. Adapting plants for human use has resulted in distinct morpho-physiological changes between the wild ancestors and domesticates, and this distinction has been the focus of several studies aimed at understanding the domestication process and the genetic diversity bottlenecks created. Growing evidence from research on archeological remains, combined with genetic analysis and the geographical distribution of wild forms, has improved the resolution of the process of domestication, diversification and crop improvement. In this review, we summarize the significance of legume wild relatives as reservoirs of novel genetic variation for crop breeding programs. We describe key legume features, which evolved in response to anthropogenic activities. Here, we highlight how whole genome sequencing and incorporation of omics-level data have expanded our capacity to monitor the genetic changes accompanying these processes. Finally, we present our perspective on alternative routes centered on de novo domestication and re-domestication to impart significant agronomic advances of novel crops over existing commodities. A finely resolved domestication history of grain legumes will uncover future breeding targets to develop modern cultivars enriched with alleles that improve yield, quality and stress tolerance.
