Abstract excerpt
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are widely used in diploid species to study complex traits in diversity and breeding populations, but GWAS software tailored to autopolyploids is lacking. The objectives of this research were to (i) develop an R package for autopolyploids based on the + mixed model, (ii) validate the software with simulated data, and (iii) analyze a diversity panel of tetraploid potatoes.
