Abstract excerpt
Recombination is the primary mechanism underlying genetic improvement in populations and allows plant breeders to create new allelic combinations for agronomic improvement. Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] has gone through multiple genetic bottlenecks that have significantly affected its genetic diversity, linkage disequilibrium, and altered allele frequencies. To investigate the impact of genetic bottlenecks on...
