Genetic Diversity and Population Structure in Ethiopian Mustard (Brassica carinata A. Braun) as Revealed by Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Markers.

ABSTRACT: Ethiopian mustard (Brassica carinata A. Braun) is currently one of the potential oilseeds dedicated to the production for biofuel and other bio-industrial applications. The crop is assumed to be native to Ethiopia where a number of diversified B. carinata germplasms are found and conserved ex situ. However, there is very limited information on the genetic diversity and population structure of the species. This study aimed to investigate the genetic diversity and population structure of B. carinata genotypes of different origins using high-throughput single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. We used Brassica 90K Illumina Infinium^TM SNP array for genotyping 90 B. carinata genotypes, and a total of 11,499 informative SNP markers were used for
