DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2024.1490767
Abstract: Given the narrow genetic base of North American soybean germplasm, which originates from approximately 35 ancestral lines, discovering and introducing useful diversity for key traits in exotic germplasm could potentially enhance diversity in the current… read more here.
