Genetic Diversity of the Rice Heading Date Gene (Ghd7) Using Genotyping Array

The rice heading date 7 gene (Ghd7) is an important regulator of heading date. We extracted integrated high quality SNP/indel variant sites from 4835 accessions and profiled genetic diversity of Ghd7. The haplotypes will be employed in a Ghd7 diversity study to improve the breeding of new varieties of rice.
