This study creates a pea seed transcriptome atlas to identify PsLEC1-like as a key regulator of seed size and nitrogen content through functional analysis of mutants.

This study identifies genetic variants underlying seven Mendelian traits in pea, revealing new alleles and gene mutations for traits previously poorly understood.

The paper identifies the molecular basis of the afila mutation in pea, showing it results from the deletion of two zinc finger transcription factors and reveals haplotype diversity at the af locus.
