Variation in root traits of chickpea ( Cicer arietinum L.) grown under terminal drought

Deep and prolific root systems have been associated with enhanced avoidance of terminal drought stress in chickpea. This research evaluated the root traits of 257 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from a cross between a breeding line with a large root system (ICC 4958) and an agronomically pre...
