A BAC-guided haplotype assembly pipeline increases the resolution of the virus resistance locus <i>CMD2</i> in cassava
2023-10-19
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Cassava is an important crop for food security in the tropics where its production is jeopardized by several viral diseases, including the cassava mosaic disease (CMD) which is endemic in Sub-Saharan Africa and the Indian subcontinent. Resistance to CMD is linked to a single dominant locus, namely CMD2 . The cassava genome contains highly repetitive regions making the accurate assembly of a ref...
