- Abstract
Focuses on nutrient acquisition in chickpeas. Yield losses related to nutrient deficiencies and to salinity; How a drought tolerant chickpea genotype ICC 4958 acquired more phosphorous (P) than other genotypes during the vegetative period in a pot experiment; Results indicating that high levels of tolerance have not yet been found in germplasm or wild relatives of chickpea to warrant breeding for salinity tolerance; Alternative approaches suggested.
