Pea (Pisum sativum L.) was the original model organism used in Mendel’s discovery (1866) of laws inheritance, making it foundation modern plant genetics. However, subsequent progress pea genomics has lagged behind many other species. Although size and repetitive nature genome so far restricted its sequencing, comprehensive genomic post resources already exist. These include BAC libraries, several types molecular marker sets, both transcriptome proteome datasets mutant populations for reverse...

Genome-wide association study (GWAS) was completed to identify loci associated with agronomic (days flowering, days maturity, plant height, seed yield and weight), morphology (shape dimpling) quality (protein, starch fibre concentrations) traits of field pea (Pisum sativum L.). A collection 135 accessions from 23 different breeding programs in Africa (Ethiopia), Asia (India), Australia, Europe (Belarus, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Lithuania, Netherlands, Russia, Sweden, Ukraine United...

Climate over the northern Great Plains has generally warmed last 60 yr. The rate of warming varied temporally and spatially, confounding trend analysis for climate indicators such as increased length growing season. Change in precipitation been even more variable. Despite this variability, present‐day trends temperature coincide with predicted direction change. synchrony current future reinforces need investigating adaptation agriculture to changing climate. Our review is focused on...

Root growth is an important component of plant but has received little attention by breeders because difficulties associated with root observation. Improved architecture and production are likely to improve pea ( Pisum sativum L.) they often grown on marginal land suffer from increased disease pressure poor fertility. The objective this study was quantify the phenotypic variation in seedling among germplasm classify observed. Seed 330 accessions core collection were germinated under...

Diversity of powdery mildew pathogens infecting pea ( Pisum sativum ) in the US Pacific Northwest was investigated using both molecular and morphological techniques. Phylogenetic analyses based on rDNA ITS sequences, combination with assessment characters, defined two groups mildews pea. Group I (five field samples three glasshouse samples) had sequences 99% similar to those Erysiphe pisi GenBank exhibited simple, mycelioid type chasmothecial appendages typical E. pisi. is normally...

Winter pea ( Pisum sativum L.) and lentil Lens culinaris Medik.) have potential agronomic advantages over spring types in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) northern Great Plains (NGP). The objectives of this study were to: (i) determine suitable seeding date cereal stubble height no‐till systems for winter lentil; (ii) quantify compare biomass seed yield with types; (iii) adaptation between PNW NGP.

Abstract The pea weevil, Bruchus pisorum (L.), is one of the most intractable pest problems cultivated pea, Pisum sativum L., in world. This study investigated transfer weevil resistance from two accessions (PI 595946, PI 343955) wild fulvum Sibth. & Sm., to interspecific populations derived crossing these with a weevil‐susceptible cultivar (‘Alaska 81’). Partial life tables characterized stage‐specific mortality and survivorship on parents progeny glasshouse trials. Larval rates pods (F...

Root rot caused by Fusarium spp. is a significant issue in the chickpea-growing regions of Montana. The specific species responsible for disease and their prevalence remain uncertain. A survey was conducted 2020 2021 to identify Montana’s associated with chickpea. Four hundred twenty-six isolates were recovered from symptomatic chickpea roots across ten counties state. Isolates identified comparing translation elongation factor 1-α (TEF1-α) sequences FUSARIUM-ID database. Among isolates,...

Pea (Pisum sativum L.) has a compound leaf like many other legume species.The 'semi-leafless' pea (afaf TLTL), with all leaflets transformed into tendrils, is considered one of the most important achievements in breeding, due to significantly enhanced standing ability and equally efficient dry matter production comparison normal-leafed genotypes (AFAF TLTL).'Semi-leafless' cultivars provide high stable grain yield are dominant modern worldwide.There also that autumn-sown those for forage...

Abstract Fusarium wilt is one of the most widespread diseases pea. Resistance to F usarium race 1 was reported as a single gene, Fw , located on linkage group III. The previously AFLP and RAPD markers linked have limited usage in marker‐assisted selection due their map distance phase. Using 80 8 recombinant inbred lines ( RIL s) derived from cross G reen A rrow × PI 179449, we amplified 72 polymorphic between resistant susceptible with target region polymorphism TRAP ) technique....
