Abstract excerpt
The promise of genomics-assisted breeding relies on efficient, affordable, and abundant molecular markers. Leveraging modern sequencing technology, commercial laboratory products, and open-source software, we demonstrate how ultra-low whole-genome sequencing coverage (skim-seq, 0.05-0.10x) can be a viable marker platform. The direct generation of sequence data followed by imputation provides an opportunity to...
