Abstract excerpt
Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) is a globally important legume crop. However, the scarcity of efficient molecular markers has hindered molecular breeding efforts and the protection of plant breeders' rights. In this study, we employed double-digest restriction-site associated DNA sequencing (ddRAD-seq) to characterize the genetic diversity of 19 cowpea accessions. A total of 791,621 SNPs were identified, of...
