Abstract excerpt
Tuber starch content (TSC) is a very important trait in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). This study is the first to use expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) mapping of transcript-derived markers for TSC in potato. Thirty-four differentially expressed genes were selected by comparing the RNA-seq data of contrasting bulked segregants. For the 11 candidate genes, we determined their relative expression levels...
