ICRISAT Develops World's First Extreme Heat-Tolerant Pigeonpea via Speed Breeding |
|
|
|
In a significant breakthrough, scientists at the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) have developed ICPV 25444, a first-of-its-kind pigeonpea cultivar that can withstand high summer temperatures and mature in just 125 days. ICPV 25444, developed through speed breeding, tolerates temperatures of 45°C during summer growth.
