Scientific Digest
Next generation sequencing for next generation hops?
ABSTRACT
Hops have a relatively large and complex genome, which
combined with the fact that hops are dioecious (with male
and female plants), makes the genetics of hops somewhat
difficult to research and understand. Large numbers of
high quality molecular markers are required in order
execute genetic studies with enough finesse to generate
reliable outcomes. These US researchers report the
application of next generation sequencing technology to
the development of high quality molecular makers in hops. The steady improvement in the number and quality of
molecular markers available for hops will provide for more
target cultivar development (for disease resistance or
aroma for example), and may be applied to “true to type”
testing (either in field or of processed product). It might
possibly also contribute fundamentally to our
understanding of the biology of hop and its valuable
metabolites. Where will it get us? Time will tell! Read more
