A bHLH transcription factor (VfTT8) underlies <i>zt2, the locus determining zero tannin content in faba bean (Vicia faba L.)</i>

Abstract excerpt
Faba bean ( Vicia faba L.) is an important protein-rich fodder crop widely cultivated in temperate areas. However, antinutritional compounds such as condensed tannins, limit the use of this protein source in monogastric feed formulations. Previous studies demonstrated that two recessive and complementary genes, zt1 and zt2 , control the absence of tannin and the white flower colour in faba bean. An ortholog of...
