Genome-wide association mapping of date palm fruit traits

Genome-wide association mapping of date palm fruit traits

Date palm is an important fruit crop in the Middle East and North Africa. Here, the authors report an improved genome assembly of this species and perform GWAS mapping of sex determining region and 21 fruit traits using high density SNP data generated from re-sequencing of the mapping population.
