Field pea (Pisum sativum) is an important pulse crop globally for human consumption and livestock feed. A panel of 92 diverse pea cultivars was evaluated across nine environments and genotyped using 1536 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) arranged in a GoldenGate array. Population structure analysis revealed three subpopulations roughly consistent with the cultivar origin. Phenotyping included days to flowering (DTF), duration of flowering (DOF), number of reproductive nodes, number of pods on the main stem, percentage of pods set, percentage of pods retained with seed and pollen germination reduction due to heat stress. Association analyses identified a total of 60 SNPs significantly associated (−log₁₀ p ≥ 4.3) with these seven reproductive development-related traits. Among these 60 marker-trait associations, 33 SNPs were associated with the onset of flowering, 8 SNPs with pod development and 19 SNPs with the number of reproductive nodes. No SNP marker was significantly associated with in vitro pollen germination reduction caused by high temperature stress. We found that 12 SNPs associated with DTF and 2 SNPs associated with DOF overlapped with the SNP markers associated with the number of reproductive nodes. Genomic regions associated with variation for reproductive development-related traits identified in this study provide grounds for future genetic improvement in pea.
