HIGH-THROUGHPUT SNP ARRAY FOR GENETIC DIVERSITY EVALUATION WITHIN HEXAPLOID WHEAT IN BELARUS
Abstract
We used a high-throughput array to evaluate the diversity of hexaploid wheat growing in Belarus under the breeding program through 384 gene-associated SNPs. The gene pool of winter and spring varieties are significantly different in frequency of 248 variants from 174 SNPs. The genetic structure of the Belarusian population of wheat has appeared similar to the Russian and Ukrainian varieties and is essentially different from west-European varieties. But it has a high variability
and, consequently, a good genetic potential for the improvement through breeding.
