“…Sequencing-based genotyping is so robust that it can be used in a wide range of genetic studies, such as genome-wide association studies (GWAS), genomic selection (GS), diversity studies, and genome mapping, even without prior knowledge of the species [ 19 , 21 ]. QTL mapping using RAD-seq as a genotyping platform has been performed in various crops, including soybean [ 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 ], peanut [ 26 , 27 , 28 ], cowpea [ 29 ], bitter gourd [ 30 , 31 ], Chinese cabbage [ 32 ], alfalfa [ 33 ], sesame [ 34 ], foxtail millet [ 33 , 35 ], sorghum [ 36 ], and rice [ 37 , 38 ].…”
