Medicago Hapmap

Medicago truncatula forms symbiotic interactions with nitrogen fixing bacteria and mycorrhizal fungi. In order to better understand the genes driving symbiosis as well as other important traits, we resequenced ~285 and identified variants in inbred lines spanning the range of Medicago diversity. In addition, we sequenced and de novo assembled 26 Medicago accessions as well as a mycorrhizal symbiont (Glomus versiforme) and 60 nitrogen-fixing rhizobial symbionts. The resulting sequences and variants allow from population genomic studies and connection of genotype to phenotype through genome-wide association studies (GWAS).
