It is more important to improve the salt tolerance of crops in a salinized world with the
situations of increasing populations, declining crop yields, and a decrease in agricultural …

Molecular markers and genetic maps are available for most important food crops. Marker‐
trait associations have been established for a diverse array of traits in these crops, and …

Association-based trait map** is an innovative methodology based on linkage
disequilibrium. Studies in plants, especially in cereals, are rare. A genome-wide association …

Background High yielding rice varieties are usually low in grain iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn)
content. These two micronutrients are involved in many enzymatic activities, lack of which …

Rice exhibits enormous genetic diversity, population structure and molecular marker-traits
associated with abiotic stress tolerance to high temperature stress. A set of breeding lines …

In wheat, the deployment of marker‐assisted selection has long been hampered by the lack
of markers compatible with high‐throughput cost‐effective genoty** techniques. Recently …

The evolution of a new race of stem rust, generally referred to as Ug99, threatens global
wheat production because it can overcome widely deployed resistance genes that had been …

To satisfy future demands, the increase of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield is inevitable.
Simultaneously, maintaining high crop productivity and efficient use of nutrients, especially …

Rice crop is sensitive to cold stress at seedling stage. A panel of population representing
304 shortlisted germplasm lines was studied for seedling stage chilling tolerance in indica …

Towards establishing association of ISSR markers with antioxidant activity in Valeriana
jatamansi, 5 distantly located populations were analysed. Total phenolics, flavonoids …
