Genome-wide association study of salt tolerance at the seed germination stage in lettuce.

Abstract excerpt

Developing lettuce varieties with salt tolerance at the seed germination stage is essential since lettuce seeds are planted half an inch deep in soil where salt levels are often highest in the salinity-affected growing regions. Greater knowledge of genetics and genomics of salt tolerance in lettuce will facilitate breeding of improved lettuce varieties with salt tolerance. Accordingly, we conducted a genome-wide...
