Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
Chickpea is the major pulse crop of India, and it accounts for about 45% of the total area and production of pulses grown in the country. Impressive progress has been made in development of cultivars suited to rainfed ecology. This has helped India in expanding chickpea area in central and southern India and compensating the loss in chickpea area that occurred earlier due to expansion of wheat in irrigated areas of northern India. The genetic variability available in the germplasm, particularly in wild species, should be exploited for broadening the genetic base of varieties and introgressing useful traits, such as resistance to insect pests and diseases. The barriers to interspecific hybridization have restricted utilization of several wild species, and, therefore, dedicated efforts are needed to access genes from these species. High-throughput precision phenotyping protocols need to be developed and used for screening of germplasm and breeding materials for different traits related to stress tolerance and nutritional quality. Rapid advancements in development of chickpea genomic resources during the past decade have made it possible to initiate genomics-assisted breeding in chickpea improvement. Molecular markers associated with several useful traits have been identified. Some of these markers have been validated and are being used in the breeding programmes. Efforts should be made on increasing the number of validated/diagnostic markers, so that genomics-assisted breeding becomes an integrated approach in chickpea breeding programmes. Marker-assisted selection can accelerate breeding process and facilitate combining different desired traits. Integration of these approaches would be important for improving precision and efficiency of chickpea breeding programmes. In this paper, we have reviewed the status of current research efforts and advancements in Indian and future research priorities to tackle newer challenges.
