In recent years, several new genomics resources and tools have become available that will greatly assist quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping and cloning of the corresponding genes. Genome sequences, tens of thousands of molecular markers, microarrays, and knock-out collections are being applied to QTL mapping, facilitating the use of natural accessions for gene discovery.
近年来,已有多种新的基因组学资源和工具可供使用,这将极大地助力数量性状基因座(QTL)定位以及相应基因的克隆。基因组序列、数以万计的分子标记、微阵列和基因敲除文库正被应用于QTL定位,推动利用自然种质资源进行基因发现。
