Association mapping for kernel phytosterol content in almond

Association mapping for kernel phytosterol content in almond

Almond kernels are a rich source of phytosterols, which are important compounds for human nutrition. The genetic control of phytosterol content has not yet been documented in almond. Association mapping, also known as linkage disequilibrium, was applied to an almond germplasm collection in order to...
