Skim‐sequencing for genomic selection in wheat: a comparison of marker platforms
The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.Abstract The promise of genomics‐assisted breeding relies on efficient, affordable, and abundant molecular markers. Leveraging modern sequencing technology, commercial laboratory products, and open‐source software, we demonstrate how ultra‐low whole‐genome sequencing coverage (skim‐seq, 0.05–0.10x) can be a viable marker platform. The direct generation
