Abstract excerpt
Deciphering how genetic variation shapes transcriptional regulation is key to understanding the regulatory architecture of complex crop traits. Here, we present a comprehensive meta-analysis of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) across five diverse tomato populations. We construct a genome-wide atlas of 40 928 eQTLs, comprising 9463 cis- and 31 465 trans-eQTLs, and reveal thousands of loci detectable only...
