Lupinus mutabilis Sweet (Fabaceae), “tarwi” or “chocho”, is an important grain legume in the Andean region. In Peru, studies on tarwi have mainly focused on morphological features; however, they have not been molecularly characterized. Currently, it is possible to explore the genetic parameters of plants with reliable and modern methods such as genotyping by sequencing (GBS). Here, for the first time, we used single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers to infer the genetic diversity and population structure of 89 accessions of tarwi from nine Andean regions of Peru. A total of 5922 SNPs distributed along all chromosomes of tarwi were identified. STRUCTURE analysis revealed that this crop is grouped into two clusters. A dendrogram was generated using the UPGMA clustering algorithm and, like the principal coordinate analysis (PCoA), it showed two groups that correspond to the geographic origin of the tarwi samples. AMOVA showed a reduced variation between clusters (7.59%) and indicated that variability within populations is 92.41%. Population divergence (Fst) between clusters 1 and 2 revealed low genetic difference (0.019). We also detected a negative Fis for both populations, demonstrating that, like other Lupinus species, tarwi also depends on cross-pollination. SNP markers were powerful and effective for the genotyping process in this germplasm. We hope that this information is the beginning of the path towards a modern genetic improvement and conservation strategies of this important Andean legume.

Arracacha, also known as “Peruvian carrot”, is a native crop from the Andean region, and is considered an unexplored root. To date, studies on this crop were mainly focused at the morphological and agronomic level. However, its genetics remains unclear. Today it is feasible to study the genetic composition of this Andean root by next-generation sequencing techniques such as genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS). We here for the first time employed 183 accessions of arracacha from six Andean localities of Peru and identified 8976 SNP markers. STRUCTURE analysis revealed this Andean crop is clustered into four populations, and with few accessions intermingled. A dendrogram was generated using the UPGMA clustering algorithm, and, similar to the principal coordinate analysis (PCoA), it showed four groups. Genetic diversity estimation was conducted considering the four populations identified, revealing very high expected heterozygosity (0.432). AMOVA revealed the greatest variation within populations (89.66%) and indicated that variability between populations is 10.34%. Population divergence (Fst) ranged from 0.02 (cluster 1 vs. cluster 3) to 0.036 (cluster 1 vs. cluster 4). Negative Fis values were also detected for all populations of arracacha, indicating it depends on cross-pollination. We hope this work stimulates the development of additional molecular tools for this orphan crop in order to establish a modern breeding program and conservation strategies of this important Andean crop.
