Variability of root length density and its contributions to seed yield in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) under terminal drought stress (2006, background): “The yield potential of kabulis are known to be considerably lower than that of the desi varieties (Kumar and Abbo, 2001); therefore, a large-seeded, extra-earlyKAK2had a large root system but not a matching shoot biomass.”
Response of Chickpea Yield to High Temperature Stress during Reproductive Development (2006, background): “Pakistan, and the countries in the Middle East ( Kumar and Abbo, 2001 ).”
Abiotic stresses, constraints and improvement strategies in chickpea (2014, background): “…2006a) FLIP 87-59C – Singh et al.

Plant drought stress: effects, mechanisms and management (2011, unknown): “Developing short-duration varieties has been an e ﬀ ective strategy for minimizing yield loss from terminal drought, as early maturity helps the crop to avoid the period of stress (Kumar and Abbo, 2001).”
Chickpea evolution has selected for contrasting phenological mechanisms among different habitats (2011, background): “As suggested by Kumar and Abbo (2001), a strong photoperiod response is maladaptive in Indian and African environments, and therefore sufficient allelic variation must have been available in the founder stocks to select against this response in the new habitats.”
Effect of drought stress on yield, proline and chlorophyll contents in three chickpea cultivars (2010, background): “grown under rain fed conditions (Kumar and Abbo, 2001) chickpea shows mechanisms for overcoming this condition.”
Chickpea molecular breeding: New tools and concepts (2006, background): “Developing short-duration varieties has to date been the most effective strategy for minimizing losses from terminal drought, as early maturity helps the crop to avoid the period of greatest stress (Kumar et al., 1996; Kumar & Abbo, 2001).”
Mapping a major gene for growth habit and QTLs for ascochyta blight resistance and flowering time in a population between chickpea and Cicer reticulatum (2010, background): “Therefore, the ability to manipulate flowering time is an essential component of chickpea improvement (Kumar and Abbo 2001).”
Sources of tolerance to terminal drought in the chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) minicore germplasm (2010, background): “This has led to a focus on escape and avoidance strategies such as breeding early maturing varieties (Kumar and Abbo, 2001) and selecting for large root systems that can sustain better productivity under”
Variation in root traits of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) grown under terminal drought (2004, background): “This has led to the focus on escape and avoidance strategies, such as early maturity (Kumar and Abbo, 2001) and large root systems (Saxena et al.”
High temperature tolerance in chickpea and its implications for plant improvement (2012, background): “Genotypic variability for heat tolerance During the Greek and Roman period, chickpea was grown as a summer crop (sown in March–April and harvested in June–July) (Kumar and Abbo 2001).”
Evaluation of perennial wild Cicer species for drought resistance (2007, background): “About 90% of the world’s chickpea is grown under rainfed conditions (Kumar and Abbo 2001) where terminal drought is one of the major constraints limiting its productivity.”
