IDENTIFICATION OF DROUGHT TOLERANT KABULI CHICKPEA LINES UNDER PEG INDUCED OSMOTIC STRESS AT SEEDLING STAGE
Chickpea is one of the major food crops of rain fed regions of Pakistan, where drought poses a serious threat to productivity by adversely affecting growth, germination, and seedling development. To minimize the effects of drought in chickpea, polyethylene glycol (PEG 8000) concentrations as T2: -0.19 MPa (2%), and T3:...
