A genome-wide association study (GWAS) for fruit firmness. A Results of GWAS for fruit firmness determined using the GAPIT package in R. A blue line indicates a significant threshold (3.41 × 10−5), while a red circle indicates a SNP marker that is significantly associated with fruit firmness. B A histogram showing the distribution of fruit firmness in the 164 pear accessions included in the GWAS population. C Two LD heatmaps of the chromosomal regions 50-kb upstream and downstream of the two significant SNPs AX-179248435 and AX-179263231
