Genome-wide association study (GWAS) is a general approach for unraveling genetic
variations associated with complex traits in both animals and plants. The development of …

Most of the breeding targets are quantitative traits. In exploring the quantitative trait locus
(QTL) system of a trait, linkage mapping was established using sparse polymerase chain …

Key message The innovative RTM-GWAS procedure provides a relatively thorough
detection of QTL and their multiple alleles for germplasm population characterization, gene …

The genome-wide association study (GWAS) is one of the potential approaches for
identifying QTLs/genes and complex traits associated with target traits quickly using natural …

The concept of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) was originally developed in
humans where it is very successful and has led to identification of key genes for disease and …

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are powerful for identifying genomic regions, or
even directly the causal loci, controlling the variation of quantitative traits impacted by …

The identification and isolation of genes underlying quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated
with agronomic traits in crops have been recently accelerated thanks to next-generation …

The development of rice genotypes with micronutrient-dense grains and disease resistance
is one of the major priorities in rice improvement programs. We conducted Genome-wide …

In human genetics, genome-wide association study (GWAS) is a commonly used method for
discovering genes and genetic variants contributing to human traits, usually through …

Background Genome wide association studies (GWAS) are a powerful tool for identifying
quantitative trait loci (QTL) and causal single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)/genes …
