Abstract excerpt
To unlock the power of next generation sequencing-based bulked segregant analysis in allele discovery in out-crossing woody species, and to understand the genetic control of the weeping trait, an F1 population from the cross 'Cheal's Weeping' × 'Evereste' was used to create two genomic DNA pools 'weeping' (17 progeny) and 'standard' (16 progeny). Illumina pair-end (2 × 151 bp) sequencing of the pools to a 27.1×...
