Genetic Diversity of Field Pennycress (<i>Thlaspi arvense</i>) Reveals Untapped Variability and Paths Toward Selection for Domestication

Evaluation of genetic diversity within wild populations is an essential process for improvement and domestication of new crop species. This process involves evaluation of population structure and individual accessions based on genetic markers, growth habits, and geographic collection area. In this s...
