“…Expression of another chickpea gene encoding the myo-inositol synthase (CaMIPS2) showed salt stress tolerance in transgenic yeast (Kaur et al, 2008). In addition, expression profiling at whole genome level and of different gene families, including LEU, homeobox, GST, ARF, and F-box, suggested their role in salinity stress response in chickpeas (Bhattacharjee et al, 2016;Garg et al, 2014Garg et al, , 2016Ghangal et al, 2020;Gu et al, 2012;Jia et al, 2012;Romo et al, 2001;Singh et al, 2018).…”
