This study identifies genomic hotspots and improves genomic prediction for cowpea traits using a MAGIC population across environmental gradients.

The paper presents de novo genome assemblies and a pan-genome analysis of six cowpea accessions, identifying core and noncore genes and their functional enrichment.

This study maps seed coat pattern traits in cowpea to three loci using genomic resources and identifies candidate genes involved in flavonoid biosynthesis.

This study presents a high-quality genome assembly of cowpea, identifies genomic features, and discovers a chromosomal inversion linked to Striga resistance.

The paper identifies a novel QTL on chromosome Vu01 conferring broad-based resistance to root-knot nematodes in cowpea, enhancing genetic resistance options.

The paper identifies candidate genes for black seed coat and purple pod tip color in cowpea using genetic mapping and PCR analysis.

This study identifies 16 QTL associated with domestication-related traits in cowpea and locates candidate genes, providing genomic insights for breeding programs.

The paper develops a MAGIC population for cowpea to dissect genetic traits and improve breeding, identifying trait-associated SNPs and recombination patterns.
