Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: Publically available SNP array increases the marker density for genotyping of forage crop, Lolium perenne. Applied to 90 European ecotypes composed of 716 individuals identifies a significant genetic-geographic correlation. Grassland ecosystems are ubiquitous across temperate and tropical regions, totalling 37% of the terrestrial land cover of the planet, and thus represent a global resource for...
