商品描述

Grown primarily by the smallholder farmers in tropical and subtropical regions, pigeonpea is pivotal to subsistence agriculture in Asia, Africa, Latin America, and the Caribbean. The last two decades have witnessed several research breakthroughs in pigeonpea. Following soybean, pigeonpea became the second food legume crop for which the whole genome sequence made available for use in genetic research and breeding. Since then, there have been tremendous efforts to develop and implement cutting-edge technologies for improving pigeonpea. These include genome sequencing of the wider germplasm sets, development of pangenome, mapping of economically important traits, multi-omics studies, and gene editing, among others. Given this, our book Designing Pigeonpea Genome for a Future-Ready Crop explores the current trends in pigeonpea research together with underscoring potential future directions and the challenges that lie ahead.

Features

- Presents the achievements of genomics research and molecular breeding of pigeonpea
- Provides current status of using wild relatives for pigeonpea improvement and optimized strategies to accelerate identification and incorporation of new genetic variation in breeding programs
- Presents the significance of mutation breeding in pigeonpea varietal improvement and future opportunities for integrating mutation-based techniques with cost-effective high-throughput approaches
- Discusses growing access to muti-omics datasets, pangenome diversity and genomic prediction studies and their relevance to future varietal development
- Demonstrates applications of generation advancement techniques such as speed breeding to accelerate breeding decisions and genetic gain in pigeonpea
- Follows the scope of brining heritable genetic changes for improving pigeonpea's response to biotic and abiotic stresses through implementation of modern gene-editing methods

The different chapters in this book have been contributed by the experts in the field. The book will serve as a comprehensive and reliable source for researchers and academicians and inform policy decisions.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

豌豆主要由熱帶和亞熱帶地區的小農戶種植，對於亞洲、非洲、拉丁美洲和加勒比地區的自給農業至關重要。在過去的二十年中，豌豆的研究取得了幾項突破性進展。繼大豆之後，豌豆成為第二種可用於遺傳研究和育種的全基因組序列的食品豆類作物。自那時以來，為了改善豌豆，已經進行了大量努力來開發和實施尖端技術。這些技術包括更廣泛的種質基因組測序、全基因組的開發、經濟重要性性狀的圖譜繪製、多組學研究以及基因編輯等。基於此，我們的書籍設計豌豆基因組以應對未來的作物探討了豌豆研究的當前趨勢，並強調了未來的潛在方向及面臨的挑戰。

特色

- 展示豌豆基因組學研究和分子育種的成就
- 提供使用野生親緣種改善豌豆的現狀及優化策略，以加速在育種計劃中識別和納入新的遺傳變異
- 展示突變育種在豌豆品種改良中的重要性及未來將突變技術與成本效益高的高通量方法整合的機會
- 討論對多組學數據集的日益獲取、全基因組多樣性和基因組預測研究及其對未來品種開發的相關性
- 演示如快速育種等世代推進技術的應用，以加速豌豆的育種決策和遺傳增益
- 跟隨引入可遺傳的基因變化以改善豌豆對生物和非生物壓力反應的範疇，通過實施現代基因編輯方法

本書的不同章節由該領域的專家撰寫。這本書將作為研究人員和學術界的全面可靠來源，並為政策決策提供資訊。
