Abstract excerpt
Modern roses are the result of extensive hybridization among wild species and cultivated forms, followed by strong artificial selection during the past two centuries. Understanding how such selection has shaped the rose genome can provide valuable insight into the genetic basis of key ornamental traits and guide future breeding strategies. To identify genomic regions affected by selection, we analyzed genome-wide...
