Genetic analysis, QTL mapping and gene expression analysis of key visual quality traits affecting the market value of field pea

Visual quality is one of the major factors that determine the market value of field pea (Pisum sativum L.). Breeding for improved visual quality of pea seeds is currently a challenging task, because of the complexity and lack of sound genetic knowledge of the traits. The objectives of this research...
