Prediction of evolutionary constraint by genomic annotations improves functional prioritization of genomic variants in maize

Abstract Background Crop improvement through cross-population genomic prediction and genome editing requires identification of causal variants at high resolution, within fewer than hundreds of base pairs. Most genetic mapping studies have generally lacked such resolution. In contrast, evolutionary a...
