Abstract excerpt
Excess soil moisture is an increasingly important yet underexplored constraint to chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) production. To elucidate the physiological and agronomic basis of tolerance, 191 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) were evaluated under optimum (OM), suboptimum (SM), and supra-optimum (SuM) moisture regimes. Agronomic, phenological, and physiological traits, together with Ascochyta blight severity, were...
