Article Synopsis
- Horsegram is a resilient legume known for its nutritional benefits, with its genome sequenced to 279.12Mb covering over 83% of its total size, revealing 24,521 annotated genes.
- The genome shows low repetitive sequence content at 25.04% and contains major transcription factors indicating drought resistance, along with a high abundance of potential functional food ingredients like Bowman-Birk protease inhibitors.
- Analysis of the horsegram genome related it closely to the common bean and identified significant genetic associations with powdery mildew, providing valuable insights for breeding programs and potential use as a nutraceutical food source.
Ethiopian mustard (Brassica carinata A. Braun) is an emerging sustainable source of vegetable oil, in particular for the biofuel industry. The present study exploited genome assemblies of the Brassica diploids, Brassica nigra and Brassica oleracea, to discover over 10,000 genome-wide SNPs using genotype by sequencing of 620 B.

We used a double-digest restriction-site associated DNA sequencing (ddRAD-Seq) technique based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) for genotyping analysis across the recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from a cross between a susceptible line, TAG 24, and a resistant line, GPBD 4.

Here we combine extensive gene expression datasets to produce a comprehensive, genome-wide analysis of homoeolog expression patterns in hexaploid bread wheat. Bias in homoeolog expression varies between tissues, with ~30% of wheat homoeologs showing nonbalanced expression.
