Abstract excerpt
Peanut productivity and quality improvement rely on understanding the genetic factors influencing pod and seed size. This study aims to identify genetic factors and regulatory mechanisms influencing pod and seed size in peanuts. Herein, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted using 390 accessions from 15 peanut growing regions to analyze pod and seed traits across multiple planting seasons. A...
