Article Synopsis
- Chickpeas are an important legume crop, but genetic diversity for breeding is limited, making the availability of diverse germplasm crucial for improving cultivars.
- The study focuses on the use of SSR markers linked to drought tolerance traits to assess genetic variation among chickpea genotypes, particularly comparing them to the drought-tolerant genotype ICC-4958.
- Results showed that while most genotypes had similar alleles to ICC-4958, only a few were different (polymorphic), indicating that additional markers may be needed for effective selection in breeding programs.
