TL;DR: The United Nations declared 2016 as the International Year of Pulses (grain legumes) under the banner ‘nutritious seeds for a sustainable future’, but the current lack of coordinated focus on grain legumes has compromised human health, nutritional security and sustainable food production.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Brassica napus blackleg resistance gene LepR3 encodes a receptor-like protein triggered by the Leptosphaeria maculans effector AVRLM1.

TL;DR: AvrLm1's interaction with two independent resistance loci, Rlm1 and LepR3, highlights the need to consider redundant phenotypes in 'gene-for-gene' interactions and offers an explanation as to why LepR 3 was overcome so rapidly in parts of Australia.
Journal ArticleDOI
The first gene-based map of Lupinus angustifolius L.-location of domestication genes and conserved synteny with Medicago truncatula
Matthew N. Nelson,Huyen T. T. Phan,Simon R. Ellwood,Paula Moolhuijzen,James K. Hane,Angela H. Williams,Clare E. O‘Lone,John Fosu-Nyarko,M. Scobie,Mehmet Cakir,Michael G. K. Jones,Matthew I. Bellgard,Michał Książkiewicz,Bogdan Wolko,Susan J. Barker,Richard P. Oliver,Wallace Cowling +16 more
TL;DR: The first gene-based linkage map of Lupinus angustifolius (narrow-leafed lupin) and its comparison to the partially sequenced genome of Medicago truncatula are reported and evidence of conserved synteny in some regions of the genome despite the wide evolutionary distance between these legume species is found.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic diversity in Australian canola and implications for crop breeding for changing future environments
TL;DR: Australian canola breeders have successfully improved blackleg resistance, seed oil and meal quality and local adaptation of oilseed rape from 1970 to 2000 in five breeding cycles, averaging 6 years/cycle, in a closed population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production of viable male unreduced gametes in Brassica interspecific hybrids is genotype specific and stimulated by cold temperatures.
TL;DR: These results demonstrate that sources of unreduced gametes, required for the triploid bridge hypothesis of allopolyploid evolution, are readily available in some Brassica interspecific hybrid genotypes, especially at cold temperatures.
