Whole genome skim sequencing of an alfalfa diversity panel in US
The goal is to develop a SNP dataset from a diversity panel of 40 individual alfalfa clonal genotypes, focusing on elite breeding and stress-resistant genotypes used in North America. This panel consisted of 17 elite parents with various fall dormancy levels, six samples of diploid cultivated alfalfa, 13 genotypes with abiotic stress resistance, one genotype with Aphanomyces root rot disease resistance, and three other genotypes.
