Zea mays RNA-seq estimated transcript abundances are strongly affected by read mapping bias

Abstract Background Genetic variation for gene expression is a source of phenotypic variation for natural and agricultural species. The common approach to map and to quantify gene expression from genetically distinct individuals is to assign their RNA-seq reads to a single reference genome. However,...
