Legume Genomics

Abstract

Legumes (Fabaceae) are agronomically and economically one of the most important crops. Because legumes serve as a source of food, feed, and industrial materials, many studies in the field of legume genomics, including genome sequencing, have been conducted over the last decade. Here, we update the progress in genome sequencing of legume crops, including soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.), mung bean (V. radiata var. radiata), adzuki bean (V. angularis var. angularis), common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan), chickpea (Cicer arietinum), and peanut (Arachis hypogaea). Since the publication of the first reference genome sequence of each species, many accessions have been resequenced to study genetic diversity, speciation, and polyploidization in the legume lineage.
