Genome-wide association study of agronomic traits in bread wheat reveals novel putative alleles for future breeding programs

Abstract Background Identification of loci for agronomic traits and characterization of their genetic architecture are crucial in marker-assisted selection (MAS). Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have increasingly been used as potent tools in identifying marker-trait associations (MTAs). The i...
