Exploration of the genetic diversity of Avena Fatua L. (wild oat) through genotyping-by-sequencing and SDS-PAGE.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The consumption of oats has rapidly increased due to their exceptional nutritional value. However, concerns over genetic erosion have emerged as oat breeding programs rely on a highly limited genetic pool. This study aimed to expand the genetic diversity pool of oats by collecting wild oat (Avena fatua L.) populations in South Korea and assessing their genetic diversity and seed storage protein patterns.

Results

A total of 237 A. fatua individuals were collected in 2022 from eight regions in the southwestern coastal areas of South Korea. Genetic diversity and seed storage protein patterns were analyzed using genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) and sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The GBS analysis identified 20,836 single-nucleotide
