Knowledge of genetic diversity could aid in providing useful information in the selection of material for breeding such as hybridization programs and quantitative trait loci mapping. The present study ...

Multiple DNA marker systems and complementary analytical approaches are often useful in population genetic analysis and speciation of plants. We investigated population structure of kenaf (Hibiscus ...

Could it be that one of only three known markers directly targeting the DNA does not exist outside the realm of microbes? Now, researchers have demonstrated that this marker -- N4-methylcytosine (4mC) ...

Modern sugarcane varieties are derived from interspecific hybridization between Saccharum officinarum and Saccharum spontaneum, resulting in highly polyploid and aneuploid plants with chromosome ...
