Introgression line libraries in melon (Cucumis melo L.): development, genetic insights, and applications in trait dissection and crop improvement
Introgression lines (ILs) are powerful genetic resources for dissecting the architecture of complex traits in crops. This review summarizes the development and characterization of six IL libraries and two additional ILs in melon (Cucumis melo L.), generated from diverse donor genotypes, including wild accessions, landr...
