Goyal, a: Physical Mapping Of Ssr Markers in Bread Wheat

Wheat one of the most important cereal crop, feeds about 40% of the global population. Due to the very large size of the genome, presence of three homoeologus groups with 80% repetitive DNA in the genome; makes any attempt of achieving success in wheat molecular mapping extremely challenging. Also, since recombination rates vary in different parts of the genome, there is a clear need to construct the physical maps, which can then be compared with genetic maps to make them useful for both marker assisted selection and map-based cloning.This stud ...
