Targeted amplicon sequencing + next-generation sequencing-based bulked segregant analysis identified genetic loci associated with preharvest sprouting tolerance in common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum).

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Common buckwheat (2n = 2x = 16) is an outcrossing pseudocereal whose seeds contain abundant nutrients and potential antioxidants. As these beneficial compounds are damaged by preharvest sprouting (PHS) and PHS is likely to increase with global warming, it is important to find efficient ways to develop new PHS-tolerant lines. However, genetic loci and selection markers associated with PHS in buckwheat...
