Polyploid organisms carry more than two copies of each chromosome, a condition rarely
tolerated in animals but which occurs relatively frequently in the plant kingdom. One of the …

Polypoid species play significant roles in agriculture and food production. Many crop
species are polyploid, such as potato, wheat, strawberry, and sugarcane. Genotyping has …

Gerard et al. highlight several issues encountered when genotyping polyploid organisms
from next-generation sequencing data, including allelic bias, overdispersion, and outlying …

As one of the world's most important food crops, the potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) has
spurred innovation in autotetraploid genetics, including in the use of SNP arrays to …

Rubus fruits are high-value crops that are sought after by consumers for their flavor, visual
appeal, and health benefits. To meet this demand, production of red and black raspberries …

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have become a powerful tool for analyzing
complex traits in crop plants. The current study evaluates the efficacy of various GWAS …

Beneficial interactions with microorganisms are pivotal for crop performance and resilience.
However, it remains unclear how heritable the microbiome is with respect to the host plant …

Motivation Polyploid species carry more than two copies of each chromosome, a condition
found in many of the world's most important crops. Genetic mapping in polyploids is more …

Key message De novo genotyping in potato using methylation-sensitive GBS discovers
SNPs largely confined to genic or gene-associated regions and displays enhanced …

Plant breeding is mainly concerned with genetic improvement of crops through
hybridization, screening and selection of advance lines. The conventional methods give …
