Effect of potato tuber bruising on gene expression 2h after mechanical shock in tetraploid potato genotypes
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Tuber bruising in tetraploid potatoes (Solanum tuberosum) is a trait of economical importance, as it affects tubers' fitness for sale. Understanding the genetic components affecting tuber bruising is a key step in developing potato lines with increased resistance to bruising. As the tetraploid setting renders genetic analyses more complex, there is still a lot to learn about this complex phenotype. Here, we used genotype by sequencing data on a panel of half-sibling populations from a breeding programme to perform a genome-wide association analysis for tuber bruising. In addition, we collected transcriptomics data to enrich the GWAS results, by performing a differential expression analysis between samples with high- and low-bruising susceptibility.
