dc.description.abstract | As the global population continues to grow, a massive challenge facing humanity is providing healthy diets from sustainable food systems. Canada is the world’s leading producer and exporter of dry pea. While traditional uses of pea include consumption as whole or dehulled/split seeds in soups and dhal, or as a protein-rich animal feed supplement, modern techniques have allowed for an expanded use pattern through value added fractionation of seeds into protein, starch and fiber fractions, and the subsequent use of these fractions in food, feed, and industrial applications. Objectives of the pea breeding program at the Crop Development Centre include improving the agronomic performance of the crop, as well as its end-use quality. Over the past two decades we have placed emphasis on improved seed visual quality, improved nutritional quality, and improved utilization properties. This presentation will summarize our progress in these areas. Parallel presentations will focus on research related to pea protein concentration and quality, biofortification of pea for enhanced iron bioavailability, and use of genomic tools to facilitate pea breeding. | en_US |
