Reducing poverty, hunger, malnutrition and environmental degradation in the semi-arid tropics by applying promising genomics, genetic engineering, wide-hybridization, diagnostic and bioinformatic tools and approaches to improve ICRISAT’s crops Molecular and Phenotypic studies Enlarging Genetic Diversity First transgenic chickpea. Pearl millet hybrid HHB 67 Improved. Pigeonpea A5 CMS system from C. cutifolius. Molecular Genomics • Abiotic Drought (chickpea, groundnut, pearl millet, sorghum) • Biotic Ascochyta blight (chickpea) Fusarium (pigeonpea) Striga tolerance (sorghum) Downy mildew (pearl millet) • Diagnostics Aflatoxin (groundnut) • Diversity Crops, pathogens, and insects • Nutrition Iron and zinc in pearl millet Genetic Engineering • Abiotic Groundnut: Drought • Biotic Groundnut: A. flavus, Indian Peanut Clump Virus (IPCV), Peanut Bud Necrosis Virus (PBNV) Tobacco Streak Virus (TSV) Chickpea: Pod borers Pigeonpea: Pod borers • Nutrition Groundnut: b-carotene Pigeonpea: b-carotene, S-amino acids Knowledge Sharing Striga-resistant sorghum.
