Abstract excerpt
Studying and understanding the genetic basis of polyphenol oxidases (PPO)-related traits plays a crucial role in genetic improvement of crops. A tetraploid wheat collection (T. turgidum ssp., TWC) was analyzed using the 90K wheat SNP iSelect assay and phenotyped for PPO activity. A total of 21,347 polymorphic SNPs were used to perform genome-wide association analysis (GWA) in TWC and durum wheat sub-groups,...
