Analysis of genome-wide genetic diversity in Turkish and reference Corylus (hazelnut) accessions
The European hazelnut, Corylus avellana, is one of the most economically important tree nut crops worldwide and is primarily produced in Turkey. Despite this we know little about the genetic diversity within hazelnut at the genomic scale. Here we use genome-wide restriction-site associated DNA tag (RAD) sequencing to compare 210 individuals and understand the evolutionary history and genetic diversity of wild and domesticated hazelnut.
