Identification of SNP markers linked to the weeping trait in Prunus mume

Prunus mume is a traditional ornamental tree with a graceful architecture that blossoms early in spring and presents beautiful flowers with a pleasant fragrance. Recently, the weeping trait has received increasing attention for its ornamental appeal and potential application to agriculture. In this study, we identified the SNPs tightly linked to the weeping trait using a linkage population based on specific-locus amplified fragment sequencing...
