Genome-Wide Detection of SNP Markers Associated with Four Physiological Traits in Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.)
This study uses DarTSeq markers to analyze genome-wide marker-trait association for some physiological traits and to determine the magnitude of linkage disequilibrium (LD).
Translational genomics for achieving higher genetic gains in groundnut
This article describes advances in translational genomics in the groundnut to facilitate faster trait dissection, gene discovery and accelerated genetic improvement for developing climate-smart varieties.
A decade of Tropical Legumes projects: Development and adoption of improved varieties, creation of market‐demand to benefit smallholder farmers and empowerment of national programmes in sub‐Saharan Africa and South Asia
This article highlights 12 years (2007–2019) of research, achievements, lessons learned, challenges and gaps in discovery‐to‐delivery research in legumes emanating from three projects, collectively called Tropical Legumes (TL) with a total investment of about US$ 67 million funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
Genetics, genomics and breeding of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.)
This review paper highlights advances in genetics, genomics, and breeding to improve the productivity of groundnut in Asia and Africa.
Haplotypes at the Phg-2 Locus Are Determining Pathotype-Specificity of Angular Leaf Spot Resistance in Common Bean
This article reports on ALS resistance evaluations of 316 bean lines under greenhouse and field conditions at multiple sites in Colombia and Uganda.
Additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) and genotype main effect and genotype by environment interaction (GGE) biplot analysis of large white bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) genotypes across environments in Ethiopia
This article presents the results of a study on the effect of Genotype × Environment Interaction (GEI) and evaluates the adaptability and stability of 16 large white common bean genotypes.
