Identification of a major QTL for root thickness in diploid wild sweetpotato (Ipomoea trifida) using QTL-seq
Ipomoea trifida, the closest relative of sweetpotato, does not generally form storage roots, but some lines develop thick roots similar to the storage roots of the sweetpotato. Revealing the molecular mechanism of thick root development in I. trifida would help us understand the evolution of storage...
