Genomic prediction for heat and herbicide tolerance in faba bean

The Plant Genome, Volume 18, Issue 3, September 2025.
Abstract Genomic selection (GS) has potential to accelerate the genetic gain in crop plants. This study was undertaken to assess the accuracy and potential of GS in faba bean [Vicia faba (L.)] and to enhance its application in breeding programs. A set of 118 diverse faba bean accessions were phenotyped for key agronomic traits under herbicide and heat ...

Faba Bean Breeding in Australia: Past, Present and Future

Legume Science, Volume 7, Issue 2, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Faba bean is an important autumn‐sown grain legume in Australia, coming third in production and hectarage after lentil and chickpea. It is mostly grown in South Australia, Victoria, New South Wales (NSW) and Queensland (QLD). Despite its introduction as early as European settlement in Australia, the crop did not get much attention until the ...

Are root parasitic broomrapes still a good target for bioherbicide control?

Pest Management Science, Volume 80, Issue 1, Page 10-18, January 2024.
Root parasitic weeds of the genera Orobanche and Phelipanche (commonly named broomrapes), responsible for enormous yield losses of several crops all around the world, are hardly manageable because of their physiological and biological properties. Although there are no commercial products and effective applications, microbiological control has enormous ...
