A set of 16 expressed sequence tag (EST)-derived simple sequence repeat (SSR) and 15
EST-derived single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers together with 4 amplified …

A microsatellite or simple sequence repeat (SSR) consensus map of barley was constructed
by joining six independent genetic maps based on the mapping populations 'Igri× …

A diversity survey was used to estimate allelic diversity and heterozygosity of 129
microsatellite markers in a panel of 44 common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) genotypes that …

Drought adversely affects crop growth, development and yield. This study assessed genetic
variation in a panel of wheat lines to water deficit and identified the QTLs governing this …

A set of 41 wheat microsatellite markers (WMS), giving 42 polymorphic loci (two loci on each
chromosome), was used to describe genetic diversity in a sample of 559 French bread …

Crop germplasm collections are valuable resources for ongoing plant breeding efforts. To
fully utilize such collections, however, researchers need detailed information about the …

Barley (Hordeum vulgare) has played a pivotal role in Old World agriculture since its
domestication about 10,000 yr ago. Barley plants carrying loss-of-function alleles (mlo) of …

Background The goal of our study was a systematic survey of the molecular diversity in
barley genetic resources. To this end 953 cultivated barley accessions originating from all …

It is generally perceived that activities related to plant breeding have reduced the genetic
diversity within crop species. Therefore, the impact of plant breeders' activities ie …

Quinoa cultivation in Chile presents an ancient and active complex of geographic, climatic,
social and cultural interactions that has determined its current biodiversity in the three main …
