Limited haplotype diversity underlies polygenic trait architecture across 70 years of wheat breeding

Abstract Background Selection has dramatically shaped genetic and phenotypic variation in bread wheat. We can assess the genomic basis of historical phenotypic changes, and the potential for future improvement, using experimental populations that attempt to undo selection through the randomizing eff...
