The theme of the meeting was “Promotion of Pulses for Multiple Benefits in Asia.” A total of 39 participants from 13 countries – Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Islamic Republic of Iran, Lao PDR, Republic of Korea, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Thailand – attended the meeting in addition to FAO officials and senior scientists from ICRISAT and ICARDA. Hiroyuki Konuma, Assistant Director-General, FAO Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific, in his opening address highlighted the important contribution that pulse crops have made and will continue to make to achieving food and nutrition security for the millions of people living in the Asian region. Konuma stressed that pulses are inextricably linked with the culture, beliefs and economy of the region. Pulses are also an integral part of Asian farming systems with direct involvement of women farmers. Konuma highlighted the relevance and timeliness of the consultation as a backdrop to declaring 2016 the “Year of Pulses” and said collaboration of ICRISAT and ICARDA, both involved in the field of pulses, highlights the importance of working together both regionally and nationally to provide support to the millions of pulse growers in the region.

  • The Extent of Grain Yield and Plant Growth Enhancement by Plant Growth-Promoting Broad-Spectrum Streptomyces Sp
    Gopalakrishnan et al. SpringerPlus (2015) 4:31 DOI 10.1186/s40064-015-0811-3 a SpringerOpen Journal RESEARCH Open Access The extent of grain yield and plant growth enhancement by plant growth-promoting broad-spectrum Streptomyces sp. in chickpea Subramaniam Gopalakrishnan*, Vadlamudi Srinivas, Gottumukkala Alekhya, Bandikinda Prakash, Himabindu Kudapa, Abhishek Rathore and Rajeev Kumar Varshney Abstract The physiological and molecular responses of five strains of Streptomyces sp. (CAI-17, CAI-68, CAI-78, KAI-26 and KAI-27), with their proven potential for charcoal rot disease control in sorghum and plant growth-promotion (PGP) in sorghum and rice, were studied to understand the mechanisms causing the beneficial effects. In this investigation, those five strains were evaluated for their PGP capabilities in chickpea in the 2012–13 and 2013–14 post-rainy seasons. All of the Streptomyces sp. strains exhibited enhanced nodule number, nodule weight, root weight and shoot weight at 30 days after sowing (DAS) and pod number, pod weight, leaf area, leaf weight and stem weight at 60 DAS in both seasons over the un-inoculated control. At crop maturity, the Streptomyces strains had enhanced stover yield, grain yield, total dry matter and seed number plant−1 in both seasons over the un-inoculated control. In the rhizosphere, the Streptomyces sp. also significantly enhanced microbial biomass carbon, dehydrogenase activity, total nitrogen, available phosphorous and organic carbon in both seasons over the un-inoculated control. Of the five strains of Streptomyces sp., CAI-17, CAI-68 and CAI-78 were superior to KAI-26 and KAI-27 in terms of their effects on root and shoot development, nodule formation and crop productivity.
