    Recently, the Institute of Biology, the Institute of Quality and Technology, and the Sanya Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Thermal Sciences, together with Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University, the University of Illinois, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences , published research papers on Genome Biology , drawing The genome-wide variation maps of 388 cassava germplasms revealed the genetic mechanism of cassava population-level heterozygosity variation affecting important agronomic traits of cassava, laying an important theoretical foundation for the genetic improvement of cassava and other high hybrids

    Genome Biology

    Cassava is an important food crop and energy crop in the world, providing a source of carbohydrates for nearly one billion people in 105 countries
    .


    The cassava genome (2n=36) is highly heterozygous, making it a good system for studying heterozygous variation


    The research deepened the understanding of the genetic basis of heterozygous variation in cassava, and provided new insights for the use of allelic variation to innovate cassava and other high heterozygous breeding strategies
