A repeat length variation in myo-inositol monophosphatase gene contributes to seed size trait in chickpea

Abstract Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is the third most important food legume crop. Seed size is the most economically important trait for chickpea. To understand the genetic regulation of seed size in chickpea, the present study established a three-way association of CT repeat length variation of...
