The book is about genetic diversity, population structure, linkage disequilibrium and marker-trait association in bread wheat. Genetic diversity providing the basic substrate for evolution is very important for the long-standing survival of species and their ability to adapt to ever-changing environments. Therefore, a comprehensive detail about data analysis, statistical measures and their interpretations to assess and understand the implications of genetic diversity has been included. Correlation analysis and principal component analysis have also been discussed. Mapping genes underlying a specific trait offers an opportunity for plant breeders to apply marker assisted selection(MAS). Two most commonly used QTL-mapping approaches have been compared for their comparative pros and cons. Population structure and linkage disequilibrium have been discussed regarding their implications for marker-trait associations. The book will be useful for under and post graduate students to plan,...
