Association mapping, a high-resolution method for mapping quantitative trait loci based on
linkage disequilibrium, holds great promise for the dissection of complex genetic traits. The …

Association mapping through linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis is a powerful tool for the
dissection of complex agronomic traits and for the identification of alleles that can contribute …

We investigated the genetic and statistical properties of the nested association mapping
(NAM) design currently being implemented in maize (26 diverse founders and 5000 distinct …

Association mapping based on the linkage disequilibrium provides a promising tool to
identify genes responsible for quantitative variations underlying complex traits. Presented …

It has been just over a decade since the release of the maize (Zea mays) Nested Association
Mapping (NAM) population. The NAM population has been and continues to be an …

Association mapping, also known as linkage disequilibrium mapping, is a relatively new and
promising genetic method for complex trait dissection. Association map ping has the …

Association mapping is a powerful approach for exploring the molecular basis of phenotypic
variations in plants. A maize (Zea mays L.) association mapping panel including 527 inbred …

Association mapping (AM) is a powerful tool for fine mapping complex trait variation down to
nucleotide sequences by exploiting historical recombination events. A major problem in AM …

Complex trait dissection through association mapping provides a powerful complement to
traditional linkage analysis. The genetic structure of an association mapping panel can be …

Maize genetic diversity has been used to understand the molecular basis of phenotypic
variation and to improve agricultural efficiency and sustainability. We crossed 25 diverse …
