AGILE Activity 1a (Exome-targeted Re-sequencing)

AGILE Activity 1a (Exome-targeted Re-sequencing)

This research project aims to efficiently expand the genetic diversity of the Canadian lentil breeding program. Targeted-exome resequencing of the AGILE lentil diversity panel will provide the information needed to determine which germplasm can provide that genetic diversity, as well as, be used to develop markers to efficiently select against poor adaptation.
