Genetic Diversity and Relationships Among Newly Developed Cowpea Mutant Lines Using SSR Markers and Agro‐Morphological Traits

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata [L.] Walp.) is a drought‐resilient and protein‐rich legume of major importance in arid and semiarid regions, including Eswatini, where it contributes to food, feed, and nutritional security. The objective of this study was to assess the genetic diversity and relationships among 30 cowpea genotypes, comprising 24 ...

Genome‐wide association analysis to identify QTLs and candidate genes associated with grain yield and its related traits under low light conditions in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Low‐light (LL) stress caused by persistent cloud cover during the Kharif season significantly reduces rice (Oryza sativa L.) grain yield (GY) by limiting photosynthesis, impairing assimilate production, and affecting reproductive development.

Development and characterization of EST‐SSR markers in Stipa breviflora (Poaceae)

Applications in Plant Sciences, 2017
Premise of the study:Stipa breviflora (Poaceae) is one of the dominant species of the desert steppe in the eastern Eurasian grasslands. Simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were developed for use in genetic diversity studies of this species.Methods and Results:A total of 1954 potentially polymorphic loci were obtained by comparing transcriptome data of

Genetic diversity in the germplasm of black pepper determined by EST-SSR markers

Genetics and Molecular Research, 2016
This study aimed to assess genetic diversity in the germplasm of black pepper from around the world using SSR markers from EST. In total, 13 markers were selected and successfully amplified the target loci across the black pepper germplasm. All the EST-SSR markers showed high levels of polymorphisms with an average polymorphism information content of 0.

Morphological variability and genetic diversity of wheat genotypes grown on saline soil and identification of new promising molecular markers associated with salinity tolerance

Journal of Plant Interactions, 2019
Eleven bread wheat genotypes grown at Siwa Oasis and Ashmon, Menofeya Governorate, during the winter season of 2016/2017 were examined for their agronomic traits under salinity stress. Owing to the differences in the salinity levels at the two locations,

EST-derived SSR markers used as anchor loci for the construction of a consensus linkage map in ryegrass (Lolium spp.)

BMC Plant Biology, 2010
Background Genetic markers and linkage mapping are basic prerequisites for marker-assisted selection and map-based cloning. In the case of the key grassland species Lolium spp., numerous mapping populations have been developed and characterised for ...

Large-scale identification of polymorphic microsatellites using an in silico approach

BMC Bioinformatics, 2008
Background Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) or microsatellite markers are valuable for genetic research. Experimental methods to develop SSR markers are laborious, time consuming and expensive.
