A Genome-Wide Association Study of Highly Heritable Agronomic Traits in Durum Wheat

A Genome-Wide Association Study of Highly Heritable Agronomic Traits in Durum Wheat

Uncovering the genetic basis of key agronomic traits, and particularly of drought tolerance, addresses an important priority for durum wheat improvement. Here, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in 493 durum wheat accessions representing a worldwide collection was employed to address the genetic...
