Genotyping by sequencing (GBS), an ultimate marker-assisted selection (MAS) tool to accelerate plant breeding

Marker-assisted selection (MAS) refers to the use of molecular markers to assist phenotypic selections in crop improvement. Several types of molecular markers, such as single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), have been identified and effectively used in plant breeding. The application of next-generatio...
