In recent times, food scarcity becomes the major issue of the world especially in third world countries. The sustainable agricultural boost for yield, nutrition and adaptability of major crops is the sole solution to this grim situation. Grain legumes are protien rich affordable foods and are also vital source of micronutrients. Grain legumes complement cereals for improvement of nutrition quality of starch-based diets of the very poor. The narrowing genetic base of grain legumes due to selection pressure and environmental stress over the generation limits the availability of variations for...

As per the reports of FAO, the human population will rise to 9 billion by the end of 2050 and 70% of more food must be produced over the next three decades to feed the additional population. The breeding approaches for crop improvement programs are dependent on the availability and accessibility of genetic variation, either spontaneous or induced by the mutagens. Plant breeders, agronomists, and geneticists are under constant pressure to expand food production by employing innovative breeding strategies to enhance yield, adaptability, nutrition, resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses. In...
