Abstract
Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most common structural variants found in any genome. They have been used for different genetic studies, from the understanding of genetic structure of populations to the development of breeding selection markers. In this chapter we present the use of transcriptomic data obtained from contrasting phenotypes for a target trait, in searching of SNPs and insertions/deletions (InDels). This approach has the advantage that the identified markers are in or close to differentially expressed genes, and so they have higher chances to tag the genes underlying the phenotypic expression of a particular trait.
