Previous studies have revealed genomic signals of introgression from wild cultivated grapes in Europe, but the time, mode, pattern, and biological effects these events not been investigated. Here, we studied resequencing data 345 samples spanning distributional range (Vitis vinifera ssp. sylvestris) (V. vinifera) grapes. Based on machine learning-based population genetic analyses, detected evidence for a single domestication grapevine, followed by continuous gene flow between European (EU) over past ~2,000 y, especially EU wine We also inferred that soft-selective sweeps were dominant artificial selection. Gene pathways associated with synthesis aromatic compounds enriched regions both selected introgressed, suggesting an important resource improving flavor Despite potential benefits grape improvement, introgressed fragments introduced higher deleterious burden, most SNPs structural variants hidden heterozygous state.

High-throughput genotyping is boosting genome-wide association studies (GWAS) in crop species, ultimately leading to the identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and genes associated with economically important traits. Choosing a cost-effective method for GWAS requires careful examination several aspects, namely purpose scale study, crop-specific genomic features, technical economic matters each option. Once genotypic data have been obtained, quality control (QC) procedures must be applied avoid bias false signals genotype-phenotype tests. QC human has extensively reviewed, however may require different actions, depending on mating system breeding activities. Here we review most popular methods based next generation sequencing (NGS) array hybridization, provide observations that should guide investigator choice GWAS.
