Exome capture of ADEPT2 loblolly pine trees

Loblolly pine, Pinus taeda L., is the most widely planted and commercially important tree species in the southeastern U.S. Exome capture was applied in a population of 375 trees using NimbleGen probes and then sequenced using the Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform. We aim to identify the markers that are associated with the adaptive traits and can be used as molecular tools to screen for superior genotypes under climate change.

loblolly pine（loblolly pine），Pinus taeda L.，是美国东南部种植最广泛、商业价值最高的树种。本研究采用 NimbleGen 探针在 375 株树木种群中实施外显子捕获，随后利用 Illumina HiSeq 2500 平台进行测序。研究旨在识别与适应性特征相关的标记，这些标记可作为分子工具，用于在气候变化条件下筛选出优异的基因型。
