Nested association mapping (NAM) is a genetic mapping strategy used primarily in plant breeding and genetics research to identify and exploit quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with specific traits of interest. The key feature of NAM is that it allows researchers to understand the genetic architecture of complex traits by leveraging a diverse set of recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from multiple parental lines.
