Phylogeny and disparate selection signatures suggest two genetically independent domestication events in pea (Pisum L.). [PDF]
SUMMARY Domestication is considered a model of adaptation that can be used to draw conclusions about the modus operandi of selection in natural systems. Investigating domestication may give insights into how plants react to different intensities of human manipulation, which has direct implication for the continuing efforts of crop improvement ...

Identification of genomic regions associated with partial resistance to Aphanomyces root rot in pea. [PDF]
Abstract Root rot caused by Aphanomyces euteiches is a major concern in pea (Pisum sativum L.). The lack of other effective control strategies makes crucial the development of resistant varieties. Although partial resistance has been reported, its quantitative inheritance, the association of resistance‐linked genomic regions with unfavorable agronomic ...

Genome-wide association study uncovers pea candidate genes and metabolic pathways involved in rust resistance. [PDF]
Abstract Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is an important temperate legume crop providing plant‐based proteins for food and feed worldwide. Pea yield can be limited by several biotic stresses, among which rust represents a major limiting factor in many temperate and subtropical regions.

Surveying and mapping cereals and legumes wild relatives in Mount Hermon (Bekaa, Lebanon). [PDF]
In this study we aim to survey and map the distribution, diversity, and richness of targeted cereal and legume wild relatives of Fabaceae and Poaceae families in Mt. Hermon of Lebanon, Bekaa side. Richness distribution and predictive maps provide relevant clues on candidate sites for conservation planning.

Diversity of Pod Shape in Pisum
The seed-containing pod is the defining structure of plants in the legume family, yet pods exhibit a wide range of morphological variation. Within a species pod characters are likely to be correlated with reproductive strategy, and within cultivated ...

1063. Lathyrus oleraceus Lam.: Leguminosae
Summary A wild relative of the garden pea, formerly called Pisum sativum L., but now included in the genus Lathyrus, is illustrated, and its relationship to cultivated peas is discussed. Recent studies of the DNA of Pisum and Lathyrus have led to the change of name for this common species.

High-Throughput Development of SSR Markers from Pea (Pisum sativum L.) Based on Next Generation Sequencing of a Purified Chinese Commercial Variety. [PDF]
Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is an important food legume globally, and is the plant species that J.G. Mendel used to lay the foundation of modern genetics. However, genomics resources of pea are limited comparing to other crop species.

Field pea diversity and its contribution to farmers' livelihoods in northern Ethiopia
Abstract Field pea is grown by smallholder farmers in Ethiopia as a source of food, fodder, income, and soil fertility. This study explores intraspecific diversity of field pea and its contribution to farmers' livelihoods in two agroecological zones of South Tigray and South Wollo, northeastern Ethiopia.
