Genetic diversity analysis and core collection construction for Amaranthus tricolor germplasm based on genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphisms

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors used double-digest restriction-site-associated DNA sequencing method to detect DNA polymorphisms among accessions of A. tricolor and found a total of 10 509 SNPs among the accessions and identified a set of 5638 SNPs without missing data in 440 accessions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pheromone-binding proteins based phylogenetics and phylogeography of Maruca spp. from Asia, Africa, Oceania, and South America.

TL;DR: The presence of different Maruca species and/or subspecies in different continents based on the diversity within PBP genes is confirmed and the genetic differences among Maruca populations should be carefully considered while using sex pheromone lures and bio‐control agents.
Book ChapterDOI

Future Prospects and Challenges

TL;DR: Breeding improved varieties requires access to the genetic diversity of the crop and crop wild relatives to source new traits, and genomics methods such as quantitative trait mapping or pangenomics studies elucidate the genetic basis of traits of interest, and marker assisted or genomic selection are guiding breeding efforts.

Beans with benefits: Integrating improved mungbean as a catch crop into the dryland systems of South and Central Asia

TL;DR: The beans with benefits project as discussed by the authors aims to increase mungbean cultivation in South and Central Asia by identifying salt tolerant, bruchid resistant and Mungbean yellow mosaic virus (MYMV) resistant germplasm.

Construction of a Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism Marker Based Quantitative Trait Loci Map and Validation of Resistance Loci to Bacterial Wilt (Ralstonia solanacearum) in Tomato

TL;DR: A high density genetic map was developed using single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers derived from genotyping-by-sequencing, fine-map Bwr-12 and BWR-6 to determine the effects of these QTLs using a near isogenic line (NIL) population and validate the genetic effects of the two QTL regions.
