Abstract:Sorghum is emerging as an ideal genetic model for designing high-biomass bioenergy crops. Biomass yield, a complex trait influenced by various plant architectural features, is typically regulated by numerous genes. This study aims to dissect the genetic mechanisms underlying fourteen plant architectural and ten biomass yield traits in a sorghum association panel (SAP) across two growing seasons. We identified 321 associated loci via genome-wide association studies involving 234,264 single nucleotide polymorphi… Show more
