Integrating gwas and transcriptomics to identify candidate genes conferring heat tolerance in rice

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Pingping Li and collaborators from the Shandong University, China have published the article: Integrating GWAS and transcriptomics to identify candidate genes conferring heat tolerance in rice, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
• what: The authors conducted a GWAS on heat tolerance at the rice seedling stage using 620 diverse accessions and compared the transcriptomes between heat-tolerant and heat-sensitive representative accessions. Improving the heat tolerance of rice cultivars has become one of the major objectives of rice breeding worldwide.
• how: The authors identified two loci qHT1 and qHT3.2 which were co-localized . . .
