Multi-locus genome-wide association studies of aluminum stress indices in shoot and root traits at seedling stage in Ethiopian durum wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum) genotypes.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Soil acidity associated with aluminium toxicity is a major abiotic factors limiting durum wheat production in the highland areas of Ethiopia. Selection and use of Al tolerant genotypes is a sustainable strategy for boosting durum wheat production on acidic soils. METHODS: This study aimed to identify aluminum-tolerant durum wheat genotypes and associated genomic regions by evaluating 300 genotypes...
