Fast‐Track Introgression of “QTL‐hotspot” for Root Traits and Other Drought Tolerance Traits in JG 11, an Elite and Leading Variety of Chickpea (2013, unknown): “, have been suggested associated with drought tolerance (Kashiwagi et al., 2006).”
Abiotic stresses, constraints and improvement strategies in chickpea (2014, methodology): “…and Singh (1987) ICC4958 Deep rooting, 30% more root volume and mass than cultivated genotypes Saxena et al.

Root Distribution of Drought‐Resistant Peanut Genotypes in Response to Drought (2008, background): “Variation among genotypes for shifting root distribution downwards in response to drought has been found in cowpea (Matsui and Singh 2003), white clover (Annicchiarico and Piano 2004) and chickpea (Yusuf Ali et al. 2005, Benjamin and Nielsen 2006; Kashiwagi et al. 2006).”
Sources of tolerance to terminal drought in the chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) minicore germplasm (2010, background): “Such contributions were established to be major in terminal drought-prone chickpea (Kashiwagi et al., 2006) or for sorghum andmaize (Sinclair andMuchow, 2001; Hammer et al.”
Evaluation of perennial wild Cicer species for drought resistance (2007, background): “So far, the existing germplasm has been evaluated for drought resistance, mainly using cultivated chickpes (Silim and Saxena 1993; Johansen et al. 1994; Singh et al. 1995; Singh et al. 1997; Anbessa and Bejiga 2002 ;S erraj et al.2004; Kashiwagi et al. 2006 ).”
Improving Drought-Avoidance Root Traits in Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) -Current Status of Research at ICRISAT (2008, methodology): “…18 cm in diameter and 120 cm in height, fi lled with a sand-vertisol mixture containing a soil moisture equivalent to 70% field capacity, the extracted root biomass was demonstrated to be signifi cantly correlated to the ones extracted from the field (r =0.62, p 0.05) (Kashiwagi et al., 2006).”
Small temporal differences in water uptake among varieties of pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.) are critical for grain yield under terminal drought (2013, background): “Grain yield under stress is indeed influenced by deep rooting in crops such as chickpea (Kashiwagi et al. 2006) and wheat (Ehdaie et al. 2012).”
Modelling possible benefits of root related traits to enhance terminal drought adaptation of chickpea (2012, background): “Screening methodology for root extension under controlled conditions in cylinders has been developed to identify germplasm with deeper and more profuse roots (Kashiwagi et al., 2006).”
