The first Nested Association Mapping (NAM) population for Italian ryegrass reveals genomic regions associated with seed shattering

Nested association mapping (NAM) populations are a powerful tool for investigating the genetic control of agronomically important traits and have been successfully used in self-pollinating crop species. Here, we present the first NAM population established in the outcrossing forage grass species Italian ryegras...

Genetic characterization of a global collection of common buckwheat to harness genetic resources for agricultural diversity.

Introduction Neglected and underutilized crops have great potential to diversify agroecosystems and human diets but require genetic improvement to make them economically viable alternatives to major crops. Common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) is valued for its excellent nutritional quality, its ecological imp...

Candidate genes with antagonistic roles in stomatal development are associated with population-wide variation in apple

A sustainable approach to address climate change and increasing water demand in agriculture is breeding for plant functional traits that conserve water and enhance climate resilience. Stomata regulate plant-water relations and are promising targets for crop improvement. Here, we investigate the variation in stomatal...
