A genome-wide association study of freezing tolerance in red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) germplasm of European origin

Improvement of persistency is an important breeding goal in red clover (Trifolium pratense L.). In areas with cold winters, lack of persistency is often due to poor winter survival, of which low freezing tolerance (FT) is an important component. We conducted a genome wide association study (GWAS) to...
