Abstract excerpt
Fruit weight is a fundamental agronomic trait in spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) that influences germination, seedling vigor, early growth, storage quality, seed nutrient reserves, and seed yield. In this study, fruit weight variation was evaluated in a panel of 364 USDA germplasm accessions that were phenotyped for this trait and genotyped using 68,561 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) generated through...
