Fine mapping and gene cloning in the post-NGS era: advances and prospects
In this review, the authors compare the marker systems used for fine mapping and QTL cloning in the pre- and post-NGS era. They then discuss how different NGS platforms in combination with advanced experimental designs have improved trait analysis and fine mapping.
High-density genetic map using whole-genome resequencing for fine mapping and candidate gene discovery for disease resistance in peanut
This paper evaluates efforts to generate whole-genome resequencing data on a recombinant inbred line population, develop a SNP‐based high‐density genetic map, and conduct fine mapping, candidate gene discovery and marker validation for early leaf spot, late leaf spot, and Tomato spotted wilt virus in peanut.
Pigeonpea improvement: An amalgam of breeding and genomic research
This paper emphasizes the ongoing genetic improvement in pigeonpea with an amalgam of conventional breeding as well as genomic research.
Genetic imprints of domestication for disease resistance, oil quality, and yield component traits in groundnut
This article analyses how the difference in ploidy between the wild groundnut species, Arachis, and cultivated genotypes hinder the transfer of useful alleles for agronomically important traits.
