Genome-wide association study provides genetic insights into natural variation in watermelon rind thickness and single fruit weight

Rind thickness and fruit weight are agronomic traits closely related to quality and yield, which have attracted much attention from consumers and breeders. However, the genetic mechanism of these two traits is still not well understood in natural populations. In this study, rind thickness and single...
