Abstract:
INCREASE, focusing on important food legumes, i.e., chickpea ( Cicer arietinum ), common bean ( Phaseolus vulgaris ), lentil ( Lens culinaris ) and lupin ( Lupinus albus and L. mutabilis ), develops new approaches to conserve, manage and characterize genetic resources. INCREASE is working with Intelligent Collections, consisting of nested core collections composed of single‐seed descent‐purified accessions, exploiting germplasm both from genebanks and on‐farm; these will be subjected to different levels of genotyping and phenotyping in order to meet, via a participatory approach, the needs of various actors, including breeders, scientists, farmers, citizen scientists and agri‐food and non‐food industries, including traits related to the value chain, to agroecosystem characteristics and to adaptation to climate change.
