Article Synopsis
- Wild jujube trees in Ningxia, China exhibit strong drought tolerance, making them valuable for breeding drought-resistant varieties.
- Researchers measured nine drought resistance indicators in 150 trees and used genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to identify significant genetic markers linked to drought resistance.
- The study found 12 significant SNPs and 5 key genes associated with drought tolerance, offering insights that could enhance agricultural practices and food security in arid areas.
