To identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with fruit-related traits in diverse tomato accessions using Hap-GWAS.
Conducted a haplotype-based genome-wide association study (Hap-GWAS) on 287 tomato accessions.
Analyzed genetic variations linked to fruit-related traits.
Utilized advanced statistical techniques to identify QTL.
Identified specific QTL associated with various fruit traits in tomato.
Showed that Hap-GWAS effectively dissects complex quantitative traits.
Provided insights into potential markers for breeding programs.
Resumen
These results support the effectiveness of Hap-GWAS in dissecting quantitative traits and facilitate development of an advanced breeding strategy for improving fruit-related traits in tomato.
