Status and prospects of genome‐wide association studies in plants

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, 2021
Genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) have developed into a powerful and ubiquitous tool for the investigation of complex traits. In large part, this was fueled by advances in genomic technology, enabling us to examine genome‐wide genetic variants ...

Omics-Facilitated Crop Improvement for Climate Resilience and Superior Nutritive Value

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Novel crop improvement approaches, including those that facilitate for the exploitation of crop wild relatives and underutilized species harboring the much-needed natural allelic variation are indispensable if we are to develop climate-smart crops with ...

Research Advances of Beneficial Microbiota Associated with Crop Plants [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Plants are associated with hundreds of thousands of microbes that are present outside on the surfaces or colonizing inside plant organs, such as leaves and roots. Plant-associated microbiota plays a vital role in regulating various biological processes and affects a wide range of traits involved in plant growth and development, as well as plant ...

A Genome-Wide Association Study on the Seedless Phenotype in Banana (Musa spp.) Reveals the Potential of a Selected Panel to Detect Candidate Genes in a Vegetatively Propagated Crop

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Banana (Musa sp.) is a vegetatively propagated, low fertility, potentially hybrid and polyploid crop. These qualities make the breeding and targeted genetic improvement of this crop a difficult and long process.

Fusarium spp. associated with Chenopodium quinoa crops in Colombia

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
AbstractQuinoa is a plant commonly-resistance to adverse biotic and abiotic factors. However, this crop can be affected by phytopathogenic fungi. There is a lack of knowledge about the fungi associated with quinoa plants in Colombia. Through morphological and molecular identification in this study were identified four Fusarium species associated with ...
