Speed Breeding and the Acceleration of Genetic Gain in Crop Improvement: A Critical Appraisal of Evidence, Constraints and Programme-Level Consequences

Kadam Abhishek Deepak, Bangar Vaibhav Dhanaji & Pranshi Dubey · Asian Journal of Biotechnology and Bioresource Technology · 2026

Controlled-environment protocols that shorten the interval between successive generations, collectively described as speed breeding, have been presented as a decisive intervention in crop improvement. Protocols based on extended photoperiods, controlled temperature, modified ligh...

Genetic Divergence and Trait Contributions for Mechanization‑Friendly Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) Genotypes Using Mahalanobis’ D² Analysis

Bangar Vaibhav Dhanaji, M. Yasin, Kadam Abhishek Deepak, Pranshi Dubey & A. Nishant Bhanu · Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology · 2026

Genetic diversity is a key factor in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) breeding, enabling the selection of superior parents for hybridization to develop high-yielding and climate-resilient varieties. The present study assessed genetic divergence among 60 chickpea genotypes using Maha...
