Abstract Cowpea is a grain legume that commonly grown in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) for variety of uses including food, feed, and soil fertility enhancement through nitrogen fixation. Genetic improvement cowpea can be accomplished by creating breeding populations from high-performing but genetically diverse parental lines. The goal this study was to use single nucleotide polymorphic markers (SNPs...

The studies were carried out in 2016-2020 at experimental field of the Samara Scientific Research Agriculture Institute - a branch Federal Scienlific Center RAS. object research was promising pea lines selection Institute. aim study to evaluate on yield and quality seeds, resistance lodging, adaptability environmental conditions identify best for transfer state variety testing. Experiments, cou...

Iris yellow spot (IYS) disease in onion (Allium cepa L.) is caused by thrips (Thrips tabaci vectored virus (IYSV). The absence of cultivars that are resistant/tolerant to and/or IYS a challenge for bulb and seed production worldwide. To measure selection progress reduced/delayed symptom expression breeding lines after two cycles, selections were performed 2011 on previously evaluated exhibited ...
