Journal ArticleDOI
Single nucleotide polymorphism genotyping using Kompetitive Allele Specific PCR (KASP): overview of the technology and its application in crop improvement
TL;DR: An overview of the different aspects of the KASP genotyping platform is provided, its application in crop improvement, and a comparison with the chip-based Illumina GoldenGate platform is compared.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel Methods to Optimize Genotypic Imputation for Low-Coverage, Next-Generation Sequence Data in Crop Plants
Kelly Swarts,Huihui Li,J. Alberto Romero Navarro,Dong An,Maria Cinta Romay,Sarah Hearne,Charlotte B. Acharya,Jeffrey C. Glaubitz,Sharon E. Mitchell,Robert J. Elshire,Edward S. Buckler,Peter J. Bradbury +11 more
TL;DR: This work introduces Full‐Sib Family Haplotype Imputation (FSFHap), optimized for full‐sib populations, and a generalized method, Fast Inbred Line Library ImputatioN (FILLIN), to rapidly and accurately impute missing genotypes in GBS‐type data with ordered markers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of Drought, Heat, and Combined Drought and Heat Tolerant Donors in Maize
Jill E. Cairns,José Crossa,Pervez Haider Zaidi,Pichet Grudloyma,Ciro Sanchez,José Luis Araus,Suriphat Thaitad,Dan Makumbi,Cosmos Magorokosho,Marianne Bänziger,Abebe Menkir,Sarah Hearne,Gary Atlin +12 more
TL;DR: Tolerance to combined drought and heat stress in maize was genetically dis- tinct from tolerance to individual stresses, and tolerance to either stress alone did not confer tolerance to Combined drought andHeat stress, which has major implications for maize drought breeding.
Journal ArticleDOI
A consensus genetic map of cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L) Walp.] and synteny based on EST-derived SNPs
Wellington Muchero,Ndeye N. Diop,Prasanna R. Bhat,Raymond D. Fenton,Steve Wanamaker,Marti Pottorff,Sarah Hearne,Ndiaga Cisse,Christian Fatokun,Jeffrey D. Ehlers,Philip A. Roberts,Timothy J. Close +11 more
TL;DR: The development and validation of a high-throughput EST-derived SNP assay for cowpea, its application in consensus map building, and determination of synteny to reference genomes are reported, which support evolutionary closeness betweencowpea and soybean and identify regions for synteny-based functional genomics studies in legumes.
Journal ArticleDOI
A study of allelic diversity underlying flowering-time adaptation in maize landraces
J. Alberto Romero Navarro,Martha C. Willcox,Juan Burgueño,Cinta Romay,Kelly Swarts,Samuel Trachsel,Ernesto Preciado,Arturo Terron,Humberto Vallejo Delgado,Victor Vidal,Alejandro Ortega,Armando Espinoza Banda,Noel Orlando Gómez Montiel,Ivan Ortiz-Monasterio,Felix San Vicente,Armando Guadarrama Espinoza,Gary Atlin,Peter Wenzl,Sarah Hearne,Edward S. Buckler,Edward S. Buckler,Edward S. Buckler +21 more
TL;DR: The combined mapping results indicate that although floral regulatory network genes contribute substantially to field variation, over 90% of the contributing genes probably have indirect effects.
