Assessment of groundnut under combined heat and drought stress Assessment of groundnut under combined heat and drought stress

Hamidou F, Halilou O & Vadez V (2013). Assessment of groundnut under combined heat and drought stress. Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science. Pubished online. (DOI:10.1111/j.1439-037X.2012.00518.x). Also printed in 2013.

In semi-arid regions, particularly in the Sahel, water and high-temperature stress are serious constraints for groundnut production. Understanding of combined effects of heat and drought on physiological traits, yield and its attributes is of special significance for improving groundnut productivity. Two hundred and sixty-eight groundnut genotypes were evaluated in four trials under both intermittent drought and fully irrigated conditions, two of the trial being exposed to moderate temperature, while the two other trials were exposed to high temperature. The objectives were to analyse the component of the genetic variance and their interactions with water treatment, year and environment (temperature) for agronomic characteristics, to select genotypes with high pod yield under hot- and moderate-temperature conditions, or both, and to identify traits conferring heat and/or drought tolerance.

Genetic and physical mapping of candidate genes for resistance to Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. tracheiphilum Race 3 in cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp] Genetic and physical mapping of candidate genes for resistance to Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. tracheiphilum Race 3 in cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp]

Pottorff M, Wanamaker S, Ma YQ, Ehlers JD, Roberts PA, Close TJ (2012). Genetic and physical mapping of candidate genes for resistance to Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. tracheiphilum Race 3 in cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp]. PLoS ONE 7(7):e41600. (DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0041600). (G6010.02/G7010.07.01).

Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. tracheiphilum (Fot) is a soil-borne fungal pathogen that causes vascular wilt disease in cowpea. Fot race 3 is one of the major pathogens affecting cowpea production in California. Identification of Fot race 3 resistance determinants will expedite delivery of improved cultivars by replacing time-consuming phenotypic screening with selection based on perfect markers, thereby generating successful cultivars in a shorter time period. Resistance to Fot race 3 was studied in the RIL population California Blackeye 27 (resistant) x 24-125B-1 (susceptible). Biparental mapping identified a Fot race 3 resistance locus, Fot3-1, which spanned 3.56 cM on linkage group one of the CB27 x 24-125B-1 genetic map.

According to additive inheritance and supplementary principle of parental traits, we took Jinmai 62 as female parent to hybrid with 98- 6160 as male. In the early generation, we selected the materials by planting in dry or irrigated land alternatively. In the high- generation, we evaluated the materials by measuring yield, selecting wheat spikes, surveying the agronomic traits in field and investigating the seed traits indoor. All above methods made the useful genes from parents expressed in Chang 8744 as drought resistance plus high yield, wide adaptability plus stable yield variety and super comprehensive agronomic performances.
