Differences in the genomic diversity, structure, and inbreeding patterns in wild and managed populations of Agave potatorum Zucc. (1832) used in the production of Tobala mezcal in Southern Mexico.
The main objective of this study was to estimate the genome-wide diversity in A. potatorum and determine if the management has had any effect on its diversity, inbreeding and structure. We analyzed 174 individuals (105 wild, 42 cultivated and 27 from nurseries) from 34 sites using 14,875 SNPs, with ddRADseq.
