Huge broad-bean genome could improve yields of an underused crop

Nature, Published online: 08 March 2023; doi:10.1038/d41586-023-00461-yA high-quality reference genome has been generated for the broad bean (also known as the faba or fava bean). The sequence could be used to identify ways to increase yield, improve pest resistance and more.
