To be or not to be tetraploid—the impact of marker ploidy on genomic prediction and GWAS of potato

Cultivated potato, Solanum tuberosum L., is considered an autotetraploid with 12 chromosomes with four homologous phases. However, recent evidence found that, due to frequent large phase deletions in the genome, gene ploidy is not constant across the genome. The elite cultivar “Otava” was found to h...
