Identification of quantitative trait loci for specific mechanisms of resistance to Orobanche crenata Forsk. in pea (Pisum sativum L.)
Crenate broomrape (Orobanche crenata) is the major constraint for pea cultivation in the Mediterranean Basin and Middle East. Cultivation of resistant varieties would be the most efficient, economical and environ...

Integration of new CAPS and dCAPS-RGA markers into a composite chickpea genetic map and their association with disease resistance
A composite linkage map was constructed based on two interspecific recombinant inbred line populations derived from crosses between Cicer arietinum (ILC72 and ICCL81001) and Cicer reticulatum (Cr5-10 or Cr5-9). T...

Identification and validation of RAPD and SCAR markers linked to the gene Er3 conferring resistance to Erysiphe pisi DC in pea
Three genes, er1, er2 and Er3, conferring resistance to powdery mildew (Erysiphe pisi) in pea have been described so far. Because single gene-controlled resistance tends to be overcome by evolution of pathogen vi...

Development of a new diagnostic marker for growth habit selection in faba bean (Vicia faba L.) breeding
Faba bean varieties with determinacy of the apical meristem are relevant to green production. A diagnostic CAPS (cleavage amplification polymorphic sequence) marker for determinate growth habit (ti) in faba bean ...

Development of SCAR markers linked to a gene controlling absence of tannins in faba bean
Faba beans are inexpensive, nutrient-dense sources of plant protein, but anti-nutritional factors such as condensed tannins reduce the biological value of their protein. Two recessive genes, zt-1 and zt-2, contro...

CAPs markers to assist selection for low vicine and convicine contents in faba bean (Vicia faba L.)
The antinutritional factors (ANFs) present in Vicia spp. seeds are a major constraint to the wider utilization of these crops as grain legumes. In the case of faba bean (Vicia faba L.), a breeding priority is the...

Macroscopic and Histological Characterisation of Genes er1 and er2 for Powdery Mildew Resistance in Pea
In pea, two single recessive genes, er1 and er2, have been identified for resistance to powdery mildew caused by Erysiphe pisi, but little is known about their mode of action. Pea accessions carrying the genes er...
