Comparison of shape quantification methods for genomic prediction, and genome-wide association study of sorghum seed morphology.

Seed shape is an important agronomic trait with continuous variation among genotypes. Therefore, the quantitative evaluation of this variation is highly important. Among geometric morphometrics methods, elliptic Fourier analysis and semi-landmark analysis are often used for the quantification of bio...
