A Public Mid-Density Genotyping Platform for Hexaploid Sweetpotato ( Ipomoea batatas [L.] Lam)

Small public breeding programs focused on specialty crops have many barriers to adopting technology, particularly creating and using genetic marker panels for genomic-based decisions in selection. Here, we report the creation of a DArTag panel of 3120 loci distributed across the sweetpotato ( [L.] L...

Description
Summary:Small public breeding programs focused on specialty crops have many barriers to adopting technology, particularly creating and using genetic marker panels for genomic-based decisions in selection. Here, we report the creation of a DArTag panel of 3120 loci distributed across the sweetpotato ( [L.] Lam) genome for molecular-marker-assisted breeding and genomic prediction. The creation of this marker panel has the potential to bring cost-effective and rapid genotyping capabilities to sweetpotato breeding programs worldwide. The open access provided by this platform will allow the genetic datasets generated on the marker panel to be compared and joined across projects, institutions, and countries. This genotyping resource has the power to make routine genotyping a reality for any breeder of sweetpotato.
