To map resistance genes for Fusarium wilt (FW) and sterility mosaic disease (SMD) in
pigeonpea, sequencing‐based bulked segregant analysis (Seq‐BSA) was used. Resistant …

Identification of candidate genomic regions associated with target traits using conventional
map** methods is challenging and time‐consuming. In recent years, a number of single …

Sterility mosaic disease (SMD), considered as the “green plague of pigeonpea” and caused
by pigeonpea sterility mosaic virus (PPSMV) is one of the major biotic factors, which leads to …
