Genome-wide association mapping reveals novel genes associated with coleoptile length in a worldwide collection of barley
Abstract Background Drought is projected to become more frequent and severe in a changing climate, which requires deep sowing of crop seeds to reach soil moisture. Coleoptile length is a key agronomic trait in cereal crops such as barley, as long coleoptiles are linked to drought tolerance and impro...
