Tannin free lentils: A promising development for specialty use and increased value
Tannin free lentils have been developed and are now available for production over a wide area in North America. The trait is controlled by a single recessive gene that eliminates tannin precursors in the seeds thereby ...
Enhancing faba bean (Vicia faba L.) germplasm for resilience to temperature extremes
The Western Regional Plant Introduction Station (WRPIS) is one of the four regional plant introduction stations in the US Department of Agriculture-ARS National Plant Germplasm System (NPGS) with the mission of acquiring, ...
Effect of population size on the estimation of QTL: a test using resistance to barley stripe rust
The limited population sizes used in many quantitative trait locus (QTL) detection experiments can lead to underestimation of QTL number, overestimation of QTL effects, and failure to quantify QTL interactions. We used the ...
Genome-Wide Association Study of the Resilience to High Temperature of Faba Bean (Vicia faba L.) Germplasm
Our research on enhancement of faba bean (Vicia faba L.) has the objectives of increasing resilience to temperature extremes and improving nutritional quality. We conduct traditional field/greenhouse experiments and adopt ...
