Genomic insights into genetic diversity and seed coat color change in common bean composite populations by Eva Plestenjak, Eva Plestenjak, Mohamed Neji, Lovro Sinkovič, Vladimir Meglič, Barbara Pipan

“…Phosphatidylinositol signaling pathways were highly enriched in candidate regions, indicating that cellular transport mechanisms play a critical role in seed coat pigmentation. Key GO terms included phosphatidylinositol-biphosphate binding, exocytosis, and vesicle-mediated transport, suggesting a link between cellular transport and pigment deposition in the seed coat.DiscussionThe study demonstrates significant genetic diversity within and among common bean composite populations, with KIS_Amand and SRGB_00366 exhibiting the highest phenotypic and genetic variability. …”
