While the functionality and healthy food value of red rice have increased its popularity, such
that market demand for it is expected to rise, most strains suffer from low grain yield. To …

The lack of dietary diversity among poor communities has led to nutritional consequences,
particularly zinc deficiency. An adequate intake of mineraland vitamin-rich food is necessary …

Genetic diversity is an area of concern for sustaining crop yield. Information on genetic
relatedness/diversity among Gossypium arboreum L. cultivars/genotypes is scanty. We have …

Bacterial blight, one of the oldest and most severe diseases of rice poses a major threat to
global rice production and food security. Thereafter, sustainable management of this …

The success of drought tolerance breeding programs can be enhanced through molecular
assortment of germplasm. This study was designed to characterize molecular diversity within …

A major emphasis in breeding for iron toxicity tolerance in rice is to identify differences that
are associated with resistance and harness them for genetic improvement. In this study …

Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is an important crop throughout the world and is one of the
most important industrial raw materials. It is very important to characterize the available …

Abstract Twenty-eight Egyptian cotton (Gossypium barbadense L.) genotypes (varieties and
hybrids) were used for analysis of genetic diversity using DNA based markers (ISSR, SSR …

Use of morphological differences, between true hybrids and off types in grow out test (GOT)
for genetic purity analysis, are not always apparent and cannot be recognised easily …
