Proposed research for innovative solutions for chickpeas and beans in a climate change scenario: The Mediterranean basin

In order to gain insight into the complex molecular networks driving legume adaptation caused by climate change, it is necessary to deeply characterize the existing germplasm in response to the environmental constraint predicted to worsen in the near future: drought. In this study, we propose to per...
