Abstract excerpt
Quantitative trait loci (QTL) have been identified using traditional linkage mapping and positional cloning identified several QTLs. However linkage mapping is limited to the analysis of traits differing between two lines and the impact of the genetic background on QTL effect has been underlined. Genome-wide association studies (GWAs) were proposed to circumvent these limitations. In tomato, we have shown that...
