Abstract
Pigeonpea is a versatile food grain that grows in the regions of tropical and subtropical climates. Biotic and abiotic factors have a big impact on pigeonpea yields. This chapter gives an insight into the major abiotic stresses affecting pigeonpea production and productivity across the globe, such as drought, waterlogging (WL), salinity tolerance, temperature tolerance (heat and cold), photoperiod, and metal toxicity. These above-mentioned abiotic stresses are expected to exacerbate by changing climate scenario. Despite the fact that traditional breeding efforts paved the way for the use of genetic diversity in a large-scale, yield levels have not improved significantly. Abiotic stress screening among cultivars and germplasm through traditional methods is difficult as abiotic stress is influenced by soil and agronomic variables and is frequently complicated by significant variation in occurrence, duration, and intensity. High-throughput and innovative phenotyping platforms helps in achieving the precision and also speed up the assessment of pigeonpea germplasm for different abiotic stresses. Modern genomic, as well as phenomic technologies and also the latest speed breeding methods may greatly benefit and fast track the development of climate-smart pigeonpea cultivars. The recent advances in the in modern breeding technologies like quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping, marker-assisted back cross breeding (MABC), marker-assisted recurrent selection (MARS), next-generation sequencing (NGS), genomic selection (GS), genomics-assisted breeding (GAB) and their application in the categorization of helpful traits related to abiotic stresses can alleviate and advance the process of trait transfer from wild and its relative species into the backgrounds of cultivated better genotypes. In this chapter, we summarise the options for combating abiotic stresses by exploring the recent genomic technologies based on trait-specific improvements as well as their potential limitations and challenges.
