From phenotypes to causal sequences: using genome wide association studies to dissect the sequence basis for variation of plant development.

Abstract excerpt

Tremendous natural variation of growth and development exists within species. Uncovering the molecular mechanisms that tune growth and development promises to shed light on a broad set of biological issues including genotype to phenotype relations, regulatory mechanisms of biological processes and evolutionary questions. Recent progress in sequencing and data processing capabilities has enabled Genome Wide...
