TL;DR: Fundamental genome resources and their application to the analysis of germplasm currently in use in West African breeding programs help to define goals and accelerate the breeding of improved varieties to address food security issues related to limited-input small-holder farming and climate stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Population genomic analyses from low‐coverage RAD‐Seq data: a case study on the non‐model cucurbit bottle gourd
TL;DR: A Bayesian method was developed for calling genotypes from an F₂ population of bottle gourd to construct a high-density genetic map and it was revealed that the cucumber genome region syntenic to the high FST island on LG7 harbors an ortholog of the tomato fruit shape gene OVATE.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wheat cryptochromes: subcellular localization and involvement in photomorphogenesis and osmotic stress responses.
Pei Xu,Yang Xiang,Huilan Zhu,Haibin Xu,Zhengzhi Zhang,Caiqin Zhang,Lixia Zhang,Zhengqiang Ma +7 more
TL;DR: The molecular and functional characterization of two CRY genes from the monocot wheat indicate that TaCRy1 and TaCRY2 might be involved in the ABA signaling pathway in addition to their role in primary blue light signal transduction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and polymorphism of Vigna unguiculata ssp. unguiculata microsatellite markers used for phylogenetic analysis in asparagus bean ( Vigna unguiculata ssp. sesquipedialis (L.) Verdc.)
Pei Xu,Xiaohua Wu,Baogen Wang,Yonghua Liu,Dehui Qin,Jeffery D. Ehlers,Timothy J. Close,Tingting Hu,Zhongfu Lu,Guojing Li +9 more
TL;DR: The development and transferability of simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers, over 40% of which are EST-derived, from ssp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genomic regions, cellular components and gene regulatory basis underlying pod length variations in cowpea (V. unguiculata L. Walp).
Pei Xu,Xinyi Wu,María Muñoz-Amatriaín,Baogen Wang,Xiaohua Wu,Yaowen Hu,Bao-Lam Huynh,Timothy J. Close,Philip A. Roberts,Wen Zhou,Zhongfu Lu,Guojing Li +11 more
TL;DR: The basis for map‐based cloning of pod length genes in cowpea is established and for marker‐assisted selection of this trait in breeding programmes is established.
