TL;DR: This is the first plant genome sequence completed entirely through a network of Indian institutions led by the Indian Council of Agricultural Research and provides a valuable resource for the pigeonpea variety improvement.

TL;DR: Ch chickpea trypsin inhibitor has insecticidal potential against H. armigera and exhibited inhibitory activity against Helicoverpa armigerA both in vitro and in vivo.

TL;DR: This is the first report of anti-feedant and anti-fungal activities of D. biflorus protease inhibitor on a single protein, which might be important for developing transgenic plants resistant to insect pests and fungal pathogens.

TL;DR: This study signifies the insecticidal potential of mungbean trypsin inhibitor which might be exploited for raising transgenic plants.

TL;DR: A simple, rapid and efficient method for isolating total RNA from polyphenols and polysaccharide rich plant tissues has been developed and the extracted RNA was found suitable for further molecular applications such as reverse transcription and cDNA library construction.
