Abstract excerpt
Understanding the genetic architecture of fruit quality traits is crucial to target breeding of apple ( L.) cultivars. We linked genotype and phenotype information by combining genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) generated single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers with fruit flavor volatile data, sugar and acid content, and historical trait data from a gene bank collection. Using gas chromatography-mass...
