Article Synopsis
  • White lupin (Lupinus albus L.) is a high-protein alternative to soybean in Central Europe but faces challenges from the fungal disease anthracnose, which impacts yield, and alkaloid management for nutrition.
  • The study involved genotyping and phenotypic analysis of various white lupin genotypes for resistance to anthracnose, and assessed seed alkaloid and protein levels using technologies like genotyping by sequencing and near-infrared spectroscopy.
  • Results showed some breeding lines with anthracnose resistance rivaling top commercial cultivars, while genome-wide association studies identified significant SNP markers for disease resistance and nutritional traits, aiding future breeding programs for improved white lupin.

Cyanobacteria are phototrophic prokaryotes that evolved oxygenic photosynthesis ∼2.7 billion y ago and are presently responsible for ∼10% of total global photosynthetic production. To cope with the evolutionary pressure of dropping ambient CO concentrations, they evolved a CO-concentrating mechanism (CCM) to augment intracellular inorganic carbon (C) levels for efficient CO fixation.
