Genes Under QTL (total genes found: 3)

Selection signature information is provided based on Mace et al 2013 and Mace et al 2014, which identified signatures of purifying and balancing selection based on whole genome resequencing of 47 individuals categorised into three groups (1. Wild and Weedy genotypes, 2. Landraces, 3. Improved Inbreds).

Regions of the genome under purifying and balancing selection were identified using the population genetics summary statistics (θπ, θw, Tajima’s D and FST) in the following three population pairwise comparisons: (i) wild and weedy versus landraces to identify domestication events, (ii) landraces versus improved inbreds to identify improvement events, (iii) wild and weedy versus improved inbreds to identify both domestication and improvement events.
