Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Characterization of genome-wide patterns of allelic variation and linkage disequilibrium can be used to detect reliable phenotype-genotype associations and signatures of molecular selection. However, the use of Sesamum indicum germplasm for breeding is limited by the lack of polymorphism data. RESULTS: Here we describe the massively parallel resequencing of 29 sesame strains from 12 countries at a...
