Towards marker‐assisted selection in pulses: a review (2011, background): “For example, 41% (35) and 34% (16) of the released cultivars in chickpea and in pigeon pea, respectively, were developed in India involving one or two genotypes as one of the ancestors in their pedigree (Kumar et al. 2004).”
Establishment of a pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.] core collection based on geographical distribution and quantitative traits (2007, background): “Low use of germplasm has been also reported in other crops like wheat (Dalrymple 1986); spring barley (Vellve 1992); maize (Dowswell et al. 1996); groundnut (Jiang and Duan 1998); chickpea and pigeonpea (Shiv Kumar et al. 2004); and chickpea (Upadhyaya et al. 2006).”
