Mapping traits of agronomic interest in specific genomic regions appears as another pivotal effort for the future development of novel cultivars. For this purpose, there is evidence that MAGIC and other exotic populations will play a major role in the coming years in allowing for impressive gains in plant breeding for developing new generations of improved cultivars. This Special Issue focused on the application of advanced technologies devoted to crop improvement and exploit the available biodiversity in crops. In detail, next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies supported the development of high-density genotyping arrays for different plants included in this issue.Research and information: generalbicsscbarleycandidate genechitinasecpSSRcrop improvementdomestication selectiondroughtexonsF1 hybridsflavonoid biosynthesis pathwayFragariagenetic diversitygenomic predictionGWASherbaceous peonyin situ conservationintronsIpomoea batatasJLAMlinkage maplinkage mappingmaizemaize lethal necrosismarker-assisted breedingMediterranean Regionmicrosatellite markersmicrosatellitesmolecular markermultiple populationn/anatural variationnext-generation sequencingnucleotide diversitynuSSROlea europaea L.olivepedigreepolymorphismpopulation structurepure linesQTLqualitative traitsRADRubusSolanum melongenaspikelet developmentSSR markerstranscription factor genestransferabilityvalidationvarietiesVicia faba L., genetic diversityZmPGP1 geneResearch and information: generalMercati Francescoedt1310434Sunseri FrancescoedtMercati FrancescoothSunseri FrancescoothBOOK9910557472303321Genetic Diversity Assessment and Marker-Assisted Selection in Crops3029812UNINA
