Microsatellite analysis in some watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) genotypes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Agriculture Environment and Food Sciences, 2022
Conservation of genetic resources is essential for the continuation of future crop production. Watermelon (Citrul-lus lanatus), a member of Cucurbitaceae, is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions. The aim of this study was to reveal the genetic relationships with the help of microsatellite markers in a watermelon collection free of ...
