Harnessing Crop Biodiversity and Genomics Assisted Pre-Breeding Approaches for Next Generation Climate-Smart Varieties

Integration of genome wide association studies (GWAS), metabolomics and transcriptomics reveals phenolic acids and flavonoids associated genes and their regulatory elements under drought stress in rapeseed flowers Biochemical and metabolic processes help plants tolerate the adverse effects of drought. In plants accumulating bioactive compounds, understanding the genetic control of the biosynthesis of biochemical pathways helps the discovery of candidate gene–metabolite relationships.
