Heat stress in grain legumes during reproductive and grain-filling phases (2017, methodology): “Molecularmarker strategies have been used to enhance tolerance or resistance against heat stress in various grain legumes through chromosomal location, number, and individual or interactive effects of severalQTL (Dita et al. 2006).”
Developing stress tolerant plants through in vitro selection—An overview of the recent progress (2011, background): “Successful application of biotechnology to abiotic constraints being faced by these crops will require knowledge of good biological information regarding the target species as well as the mechanisms underlying resistance/tolerance to these stresses (Dita et al., 2006).”
Consequences and Mitigation Strategies of Abiotic Stresses in Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) under the Changing Climate (2021, methodology): “Achieving sustainable resistance to abiotic and biotic stress is possible through pyramiding different tolerant genes [200].”
Legumes in the reclamation of marginal soils, from cultivar and inoculant selection to transgenic approaches (2011, background): “4.2 Transgenic legumes with enhanced stress tolerance Several biotechnological approaches are available to enhance biotic and abiotic stress tolerance in legumes, including molecular marker-assisted (MAS) breeding, tissue culture, and gene transformation (Dita et al. 2006 and references therein).”
Pyramiding of modified cry1Ab and cry1Ac genes of Bacillus thuringiensis in transgenic chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) for improved resistance to pod borer insect Helicoverpa armigera (2011, background): “However, the efficiency of Agrobacterium-mediated transformation and recovery of transgenics of grain legumes are restricted due to several inherent limitations including their complex genome (Eapen 2008; Dita et al. 2006).”
Achievements and limitations of contemporary common bean breeding using conventional and molecular approaches (2009, background): “…cells for transformation, the long period of time required to develop transgenics, lack of long-term funding, the absence of a coordinated research by the scientific community and, in some cases, an unfavorable public perception toward the use of transgenic crops (Dita et al. 2006; Eapen 2008).”
