Plant Variety Protetion (PVP) National Association of Plant Breeders 2023-12-01 | NAPB Webinar from Anthony Parker, commissioner with Canadian Food Inspection Agency, Plant Breeder's Rights Office. PVP is a from of Intellectual Property (IP) protection, conceptually similar to patents and copyrights. A breeder can apply for protection, and if the conditions are met (New, Distinct, Uniform, and Stable), they can receive an exclusive monopoly for up to 20 years (25 for trees and grapevines). This system of IP protection is highly harmonized globally under the International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants (UPOV). Exclusive IP right s, licensing, and royalties can support investment in plant breeding, public, private, large, small, domestic, and foreign.
Determination of seed color patterns in common bean by MYB-bHLH-WD40 complexes and temperature National Association of Plant Breeders 2023-11-10 | An NAPB webinar by Dr. Travis Parker of UC Davis discussing:Seed color patterns are critical for differentiating crop market classes.In common bean, we identified mutations related to five major color pattern genes, all of which were members of MYB-bHLH-WD40 MBW complexes. One gene showed strong parallelism, with 7 independent parallel mutations.Strong associations between color and temperature existed in white-mottled varieties.These results demonstrate the importance of MBW complexes and temperature in the establishment of seed color patterning.

Parentage Reconstruction: A Powerful Breeding Tool to Exploit on the Genomics Era National Association of Plant Breeders 2023-09-29 | The availability of genomic information has been critical for most breeding programs to build genomic prediction models and/or implement GWAS. However, it is also possible to use this genomic information to reconstruct pedigree. This webinar will explore some of the R procedures to use with the genomic information in different algorithms to check, assess, and reconstruct pedigree and to identify duplicates and sibships.
