Transcriptome-wide association study and eQTL analysis to assess the genetic basis of bulb-yield traits in garlic (Allium sativum)

Abstract Background Garlic bulbs are abnormal expanding axillary buds that are rarely found among vascular plants. Bulb-yield is one of the valuable agronomic traits of garlic. However, due to the large genome size and a strictly asexual life cycle in the cultivars, the genetic basis of the yield tr...
