TL;DR: The first annotated chromosome-level reference genome assembly for pea, Gregor Mendel’s original genetic model, provides insights into legume genome evolution and the molecular basis of agricultural traits forpea improvement.

TL;DR: It was demonstrated that the novel Vrn-B1c allele was present in 25 spring varieties of diverse origin, showing this allele to be widely distributed.

TL;DR: Eight key traits, including persistence, improved livestock health by isoflavonoid production in addition to important agro‐morphological traits, were fine‐mapped on the high‐density SNP linkage map anchored to the assembly.

TL;DR: This review summarises current achievements in the study of genes controlling flowering in the dicot model species thale cress (Arabidopsis thaliana), as well as in monocot modelspecies rice and temperate cereals such as barley and wheat.

TL;DR: Comparisons of the genetic maps with other 3B maps developed by the authors indicated that the QTL may be homologous to a QTL segregating in UK germplasm.
