Metabolite-based genome-wide association study enables dissection of the flavonoid decoration pathway of wheat kernels.

Abstract excerpt

The marriage of metabolomic approaches with genetic design has proven a powerful tool in dissecting diversity in the metabolome and has additionally enhanced our understanding of complex traits. That said, such studies have rarely been carried out in wheat. In this study, we detected 805 metabolites from wheat kernels and profiled their relative contents among 182 wheat accessions, conducting a metabolite-based...
