Genome‐wide development of intra‐ and inter‐specific transferable SSR markers and construction of a dynamic web resource for yam molecular breeding: Y2MD

The Plant Genome, Volume 17, Issue 2, June 2024.
Abstract Microsatellite markers are widely used in population genetics and breeding. Despite the economic significance of yams in developing countries, there is a paucity of microsatellite markers, and as of now, no comprehensive microsatellite marker database exists. In this study, we conducted genome‐wide microsatellite marker development across four
