A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted on a diversity panel of 103 cotton accessions over three seasons to determine genetic contributions to a range of cotton yield components including fibre quality, plant architecture and stomatal conductance traits. The accessions covered breeding lines, released cultivars and some obsolete cultivars that contributed significantly to modern breeding...
Association mapping is a method to identify associations between target traits and genetic markers based on linkage disequilibrium (LD) of a quantitative trait locus. Synthetic hexaploid wheat (SHW) is derived from a cross between Triticum durum Desf. and Aegilops tauschii Coss. that enhances genetic diversity and broadens breeding resources. In this study, phenotypic diversity in 110 wheat accessions...
“Qamgur”, a type of turnip (Brassica rapa ssp. rapa), is a special food of the Uyghur people living in Xinjiang, the northwest of China. In the present study, SSR markers developed for various Brassica rapa subspecies were tested for their transferability to turnip and used to analyze genetic diversity in “Qamgur” and other Chinese turnip varieties. A total of 18 “Qamgur” and 12 other varieties were...
Field pea (Pisum sativum) is an important pulse crop globally for human consumption and livestock feed. A panel of 92 diverse pea cultivars was evaluated across nine environments and genotyped using 1536 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) arranged in a GoldenGate array. Population structure analysis revealed three subpopulations roughly consistent with the cultivar origin. Phenotyping included...
Bermudagrass is a warm season grass widely cultivated for turf and fodder. Nonetheless, the grass has poor forage quality because animals that consume it fail to assimilate its organic matter efficiently. Thus, identification of the marker-trait association between simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers and forage-quality-related traits in diverse bermudagrass accessions would enable efficient selection...
