“…Unfortunately, there is a lack of financial resources and unclear research objectives specifically dedicated to the marama bean. There is a pressing need for research on these native plants, along with the development of effective cultivation protocols (Chiurugwi et al, 2019;Chongtham et al, 2022). Innovative methods, including the use of molecular biology techniques, should be employed to expedite the selection of desirable traits in marama breeding.…”

“…Green leafy vegetables contain health promoting phytochemicals, known to have an important role in alleviation and fighting against many deficiencies and diseases [76]. The consumption of vegetables has been associated with a decreased risk of developing various diseases including heart ailments and malignancies, pointing out the benefits of their increased intake [77].…”

“…The emphasis was predominantly placed on improving the domestication process of these crops ( Kamenya, et al, 2021 ). For orphan legumes (pea, lupin) mutation breeding and interspecific introgression have been successful in generating genetic diversity leading to favorable traits like stress tolerance, high yield, etc., ( Chongtham et al, 2022 ). A robust repertoire of molecular markers serves as a crucial asset in the breeding endeavors of all crop species; however, it is often deficient in broad array of orphan crops.…”

“…Certain researchers have pinpointed specific genes or quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with adaptive traits in orphan legume species. These genetic elements possess the potential to be utilized in crop enhancement efforts to confer stress tolerance onto other cultivated crops ( Chongtham et al, 2022 ). Although research on speed breeding in orphan crops is still limited, there are a few examples where it has been explored.…”
