- Title
APPROACHES TO THE ISOLATION OF GENES OF AGRONOMIC IMPORTANCE IN PEA.

- Abstract
On a global scale pea is a relatively minor crop with total production ranking about fifth among grain legumes and about 40th for arable crops as a whole. The pea genome is about the same size as the human genome, so the development of comprehensive genomic tools has been expensive. Despite these problems pea has abundant genetic resources, so the challenge for pea genetics and breeding is to find efficient ways to harness pea genetics to available genomic resources and methods. Two such approaches are discussed here.
