Chromosome-level genome assembly and population genomic resource to accelerate orphan crop lablab breeding

Chromosome-level genome assembly and population genomic resource to accelerate orphan crop lablab breeding

Abstract Under-utilised orphan crops hold the key to diversified and climate-resilient food systems. Here, we report on orphan crop genomics using the case of Lablab purpureus (L.) Sweet (lablab) - a legume native to Africa and cultivated throughout the tropics for food and forage. Our Africa-led pl...
