Harvesting the promising fruits of genomics: applying genome sequencing technologies to crop breeding.
Next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies are being used to generate whole genome sequences for a wide range of crop species. When combined with precise phenotyping methods, these technologies provide a powerful and rapid tool for identifying the genetic basis of agriculturally important traits...
