Abstract excerpt
The identification of quantitative trait locus (QTL) or genes responsible for key agronomic traits has significantly enhanced genetic improvement through marker-assisted selection (MAS). However, the impacts of MAS on genetic parameters and subsequent selection processes have not been thoroughly characterised. Here, through genome-wide selective sweep analysis, we identified a diverse set of genes involved in...
