摘要
Dear Editor,Gene cloning has a fundamental role in crop research but has long been hindered by high costs and labor requirements,which have limited the numbers of genes that have been functionally characterized,especially in wheat(Liang et al.,2021).Quantitative trait locus(QTL)mapping is the first step in gene cloning,enabling the localization of genomic loci that show significant associations with quantitative traits.One commonly used strategy is based on single-nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)arrays(Sun et al.,2020).
