Implication

Genetic mapping study reveals major quantitative trait loci and moderate genomic prediction accuracies in cowpea, suggesting viable marker-assisted breeding for nutrition.

Key Points

Major quantitative trait loci regulate cowpea sucrose and stachyose concentrations, showing consistent allelic effects across distinct field environments.
Genomic prediction accuracies reached 0.40 to 0.58 for grain minerals, confirming moderate selective capacity across the evaluated breeding panels.
Assessment using multi-parent advanced generation intercross populations supports breeding mineral-rich cowpea varieties with lower galacto-oligosaccharides.
