Dissecting the genetic architecture of key agronomic traits in lettuce using a MAGIC population
The MAGIC population's lack of structure and high mapping resolution enables the efficient dissection of complex traits. The identified loci and candidate genes provide significant genetic resources for improving agronomic performance and leaf quality in lettuce.
