Genetics and breeding in legumes
2008
Ellis, T.H.N., John Innes Centre, Norwich (United Kingdom). Department of Crop Genetics
Legume genetics is a rich and venerable subject: we have only to recall the names Mendel and Vavilov to understand this. However, past glories are past and we need to ask what legume genetics can do now and how it can impact on breeding. In this presentation I will discuss the usefulness of comparative genomics tools, the potential for even higher resolution genotyping and the availability of novel genetic resources. In this I will draw heavily on the outcomes of the Grain Legumes Integrated Project. Despite the optimism and eagerness we can have for legume genetics and genomics, I will temper this by addressing the issue of how such advances can influence the three central issues of breeding heritability, selection intensity and phenotypic variance.
