Fine mapping of QTL and identification of candidate genes responsible for tuberous stem formation in Kohlrabi (Brassica oleracea var. gongylodes L.)
Tuberous stem is a key determinant of yield and quality in kohlrabi, and it is a prime target of artificial selection for breeding and domestication. To dissect the genetic basis of stem tuberization, a previously identified quantitative trait locus, REnBo2 on chromosome C03, was fine mapped to an 87.5-kb interval usin...
