Description In order to feed an ever-increasing
population, it is essential to deal yieldreducing
factors. Climate smart crop varieties
that yield more with fewer inputs will be
required to achieve the success. In this
scenario pigeonpea plays an important role
as it can stand in relatively harsh
environmental conditions. Hybrid breeding
along with the pure line breeding, genetic
resources and genomics advances are
enriching this crop. However, the pigeonpea
improvement program must be re-oriented
in order to deal with the yield-reducing
factors and to break the yield plateau.
