Spotted wing drosophila (Drosophila suzukii) is an emerging pest that began spreading in 2008 and its distribution now includes 13 countries across two continents. Countries where it is established have reported significant economic losses of fresh produce, such as cherries due to this species of fly. At larval stages, it is impossible to identify due to its striking similarities with other cosmopolitan and harmless drosophilids. Molecular methods allow identification but the current technique of DNA...

Vertical bars represent linkage groups, horizontal lines within bars show the position of markers within each group, lines between groups indicate homologous markers at the contig level. Scale bars shows cM (Kosambi). Fig. S1A shows perfect synteny and high collinearity between these linkage groups in three parental linkage maps. Fig. S2B...

Abstract Background The growing availability of genomic resources in radiata pine paves the way for significant advances in fundamental and applied genomic research. We constructed robust high-density linkage maps based on exome-capture genotyping in two F1 populations, and used these populations to perform quantitative trait locus (QTL) scans, genomic prediction and quantitative analyses of genetic architecture for key traits targeted by tree improvement programmes. Results Our mapping approach used probabilistic error correction of the marker...

Genomic predictive ability for diameter at breast height (DBH) and wood density (WD) as a function of training population size (A) and number of markers (B) used in random cross-validations of 81 Pinus radiata genotypes from the FWK population. Error bars correspond to standard deviations across 100 random cross-validations for each set of parameters. Analyses in (A) were based on all markers (M = 9353). The training population size in...
