There are seven chapters for each crop that provide in-depth information on cultivation, genetic improvement, plant protection measures, management of physiological and abiotic stresses along with related genetic markers and biotechnological advances pertaining to these legumes. The chapters present research findings and brief reviews concerning the advances made in the improvement of these legumes. Legumes are utilized as pulses or grains aiding as an important source of protein for both human and animal consumption and also provide raw materials to the food and feed industries. They are also valuable for soil building, improving soil quality and biological nitrogen fixation. Physiology and genetics provide an inimitable source of information on the distinct aspects of basic and applied legume research for general readers, students, academicians and researchers. Arid legumes are crops characterized by inherent features and capabilities to withstand adverse and harsh climatic conditions, significantly replenish the soil, as well as provide protein and micronutrients. Adaptability to several stresses including drought makes them key to agriculture in areas receiving scanty rainfall. This comprehensive book disseminates significant information on the genetic diversity, cultivation, manipulation through mutagenic techniques, molecular biology and other breeding techniques. The book, therefore, is of importance to teachers, researchers and policymakers who are interested to acquire knowledge about moth bean, cowpea and horse gram. It also serves as an additional reading material for MSc and PhD students of agriculture and environmental sciences. The book is also useful to national and international agricultural scientists and policymakers. 001468550 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001468550 650_0 $$aLegumes. 001468550 650_0 $$aVigna. 001468550 650_0 $$aLegumes$$xPhysiology. 001468550 650_0 $$aVigna$$xPhysiology. 001468550 650_0 $$aLegumes$$xGenetics. 001468550 650_0 $$aVigna$$xGenetics. 001468550 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001468550 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aPATHAK, RAKESH.$$tGENETICS, PHYSIOLOGY AND CULTIVATION OF MOTH BEAN,COWPEA AND HORSE GRAM.$$d[Place of publication not identified] : SPRINGER VERLAG, SINGAPOR, 2023$$z9811999554$$w(OCoLC)1360274049 001468550 852__ $$bebk 001468550 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-19-9956-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001468550 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1468550$$pGLOBAL_SET 001468550 980__ $$aBIB 001468550 980__ $$aEBOOK 001468550 982__ $$aEbook 001468550 983__ $$aOnline 001468550 994__ $$a92$$bISE
