Genome wide association studies in yam reveal the challenge of high heterozygosity
Abstract Yam (Dioscorea spp.) is a herbaceous vine crop valued for its starchy tubers, which are rich in essential nutrients. Its genome is highly heterozygous, contributing to considerable genetic diversity and adaptability. Understanding the polymorphism information content (PIC) of genetic marker...
