Arabidopsis thaliana Doubled Haploid Genotyping Data

In this study, an Arabidopsis doubled haploid population was developed to show that QTL mapping can be as successful in this population design as in traditional recombinant inbred lines (RILs). Doubled haploids have an advantage over RILs because they offer significant time savings. Doubled haploids can be developed within two generations of the initial parental cross while RILs require at least eight generations of selfing. The ability to create doubled haploids in Arabidopsis is key for many research groups interested in natural variation. Reduced-representation sequencing data that was used to genotype each doubled haploid in the population is deposited here.
