Chickpeas - Phenotyping for drought traits
• Trait’s relevance for phenotyping
• Framework for trait choice: Analytical
model explaining yield
• Phenotyping experience for
- Root structure and function (TL1)
- Canopy temperature
- TE through Δ13C (GCP : SP3 G4008-12)
- Rate of partitioning
- For drought tolerance indices
Chickpeas - Phenotyping for drought traits
Drought type - strategies (intensity/timing/duration)
Trait that matters & linked to yield
Link trait-environment
Constitutive vs adaptive traits
Non-stress related factors affecting yield
e.g.: Time to flowering & Yield potential

Phenotyping for TE (through Δ13
C)
How does TE contribute
to drought tolerance?
Yield = Shoot biomass x Harvest index
Transpiration Transpiration Efficiency (TE)=13C x
Leaf biomass + Stem biomass
LA x Leaf biomass/Leaf area ratio (inverse of specific leaf area: SLA)
SPAD
Increasing SLA=reducing the water loss via leaf area reduction + maintain photosynthesis via
leaf thickness increase

Yield-based approach
for assessing
Drought Tolerance
The drought stressed section of the DT field evaluation
of the reference collection of chickpea germplasm
Residuals derived using the multiple regression approach.
This approach considers grain yield under drought stress (Ys)
as a function of yield potential (Yp), time to 50% flowering (F),
and a drought tolerance index (DTI) such that the yield of a
genotype can be expressed as follows:
Ysi = a + bYp + cFi + DTIi + E,
where E is random error with zero mean and variance σ.
Standard residuals (= DTI) were calculated as the difference
between the actual and estimated yields under stress upon
the standard error of the estimated yield (σ).
For this multiple regression, 50% flowering (Fi) under stress for every individual
plot and for the Yield potential (Yp) arithmetic mean across the three replications
were considered. (Bidinger et al., 1987; Saxena et al., 1987; Saxena, 2003; Vadez et al.,
2007; Krishnamurthy et al. 2010; 2011)

Conclusions
• Many-fold phenotypic variation exists in the reference collection for roots (structure & function), canopy temperature, Δ13C, rate of partitioning, drought yield & DTIs.
• QTLs associated with most drought tolerance traits (like roots and Δ13C ) appear at a hotspot.
• The rate of partitioning is known to confer yield advantages under terminal drought; however the GxE interaction & marker association is yet to be ascertained
