The International Cowpea SNP Consortium Genotyping Panel is a tool designed to meet the needs of a growing world population by facilitating the development of new cowpea varieties with desirable traits, such as higher yield and quality, disease resistance, pest resistance and drought tolerance. The primary focus is to emphasize diversity within breeding germplasm of relevance to sub-Saharan Africa and US production regions. Substantial coverage is also included that targets breeding germplasm in China. The Community has plans to provide a cluster file for the Cowpea Genotyping array suitable for fast automated analysis of all project sizes. This panel is suitable as base content for over 30,000 Add-On markers for a customized Cowpea genotyping array.
