The present application relates to the technical field of biological information, and discloses a method for mining excellent genes of
sorghum. The method for mining excellent genes of
sorghum comprises the following steps: determining quality traits required for breeding
sorghum varieties according to literature or experience, and selecting sorghum varieties with and without the required quality traits; obtaining
gene expression of a
transcriptome of the sorghum varieties through sequencing; pre-
processing gene expression data of the
transcriptome, and selecting features of the pre-processed data by using a
genetic algorithm for each quality trait; and selecting all trait excellent
gene sets as a set of excellent genes of sorghum, thereby providing a set of candidate excellent genes for sorghum breeding.
