Genome-Wide Association Studies in Plants
Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) in plants are powerful tools used to identify genetic variants associated with specific traits by linking phenotypic data with genomic information. By analyzing large populations of diverse genotypes, researchers can pinpoint single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) linked to traits like yield, disease resistance, and abiotic stress tolerance. GWAS has revolutionized plant breeding by facilitating marker-assisted selection, where breeders can use identified markers to select superior plants efficiently. This approach accelerates the development of improved varieties and enhances understanding of the genetic architecture underlying complex traits. GWAS continues to play a pivotal role in modern plant genomics and crop improvement strategies.
