Genetic dissection of drought tolerance and recovery potential by quantitative trait locus mapping of a diploid potato population

Potato is the third most important staple food crop in terms of consumption, yet it is relatively susceptible to yield loss because of drought. As a first step towards improving drought tolerance in this crop, we set out to identify the genetic basis for drought tolerance in a diploid potato mapping...
