Agriculture: Feeding the future

Susan R. McCouch, +46 more
- 03 Jul 2013 - 
TL;DR: Humanity depends on fewer than a dozen of the approximately 300,000 species of flowering plants for 80% of its caloric intake and capitalize on only a fraction of the genetic diversity that resides within each of these species.
Journal ArticleDOI

The evolving story of rice evolution

TL;DR: The apparent contradictions between a single origin of Asian rice and deep genetic divisions seen in rice germplasm are resolved based on a hypothesis of cycles of introgression, selection and diversification from non-shattering domesticated rice.
Book

The Asian Vigna: Genus Vigna subgenus Ceratotropis genetic resources

TL;DR: This work states that Vigna subgenus Ceratotropis taxa synonymized checklist is a good starting point for investigating the relationships between these species and each other in the fossil record.
Journal ArticleDOI

Construction of a Genetic Linkage Map and Genetic Analysis of Domestication Related Traits in Mungbean (Vigna radiata)

TL;DR: The useful QTLs for seed size, pod dehiscence and pod maturity that have not been found in other Asian Vigna species were identified in mungbean, and theseQTLs may play the important role as new gene resources for otherAsian VignA species.
Journal ArticleDOI

The development of SSR markers by a new method in plants and their application to gene flow studies in azuki bean [Vigna angularis (Willd.) Ohwi & Ohashi]

TL;DR: A (AG)n-SSR-enriched library in azuki bean was constructed in order to obtain a comprehensive range of SSR markers efficiently and resulted in a 116-fold enrichment over the non-en enriched genomic library, with a high percentage of successful single-locus amplification by the primer pairs designed.
