Mining germplasm resources and discovering associated genes are fundamental approaches to enhancing drought tolerance in maize. 在玉米种质资源中蕴含着很多影响玉米耐旱性的功能等位基因变异。
Maybe we can compare across those genomes and say, OK, here is a region that correlates with drought tolerance in all the varieties that have it. 这样我们就能一个个比较它们的基因组,然后得出,是的,在所有的耐旱性品种中,都有一块区域与耐旱性相关。
