Whole-Genome Association Mapping and Genomic Prediction for Iron Concentration in Wheat Grains

Whole-Genome Association Mapping and Genomic Prediction for Iron Concentration in Wheat Grains

Malnutrition of iron (Fe) affects two billion people worldwide. Therefore, enhancing grain Fe concentration (GFeC) in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is an important goal for breeding. Here we study the genetic factors underlying GFeC trait by genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and the prediction a...
