Despite the ecological and economic importance of passion fruit (Passiflora spp.), molecular
markers have only recently been utilized in genetic studies of this genus. In addition, both …

Virus diseases are among the key limiting factors that cause significant yield loss and
continuously threaten crop production. Resistant cultivars coupled with pesticide application …

Genetic variation among sweet, purple, and yellow passion fruit accessions was assessed
using inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers. Eighteen ISSR primers were used to …
