Genotyping-by-sequencing derived SNP markers reveal genetic diversity and population structure of Dactylis glomerata germplasm by Muhammad Tanveer Altaf, Pablo Federico Cavagnaro, Kağan Kökten, Amjad Ali, Andres Morales, Andres Morales, Muhammed Tatar, Mehmet Bedir, Muhammad Azhar Nadeem, Muhammad Aasim, Nafiz Çeliktaş, Sheikh Mansoor, Faheem Shehzad Baloch, Faheem Shehzad Baloch

“…A total of 2913 high-quality SNP markers revealed substantial genetic variability across provinces. Notably, accessions from Erzurum exhibited the highest GD (mean GD: 0.26; He: 0.5328), while provinces such as Bursa and Muğla demonstrated lower GD (mean GD: 0.15; He < 0.22), suggesting potential genetic bottlenecks. …”

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

“…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. The identification of selective sweeps and the enrichment of phosphatidylinositol-related pathways provide new insights into the molecular mechanisms controlling seed coat color variation. …”
