Genome-wide estimation of heritability and its functional components for flowering, defense, ionomics, and developmental traits in a geographically diverse population of Arabidopsis thaliana.

Abstract excerpt

Narrow-sense heritability (portion of the total phenotypic variation attributable to additive genetic effect, h2) is a critical parameter in plant breeding and genetics, but its estimation is difficult for populations with unknown pedigree information. This study applied a marker-based linear mixed model (LMM) analysis to estimate narrow-sense heritability and its seven functional components corresponding to SNPs...
