Abstract excerpt
Oil palm has become one of the most important oil crops in the world. Marker-assisted selections have played a pivotal role in oil palm breeding programs. Here, we report the use of genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) approach for a large-scale SNP discovery and genotyping of a mapping population. Reduced representation libraries of 108 F2 progeny were sequenced and a total of 524 million reads were obtained. We...
