KASP: a genotyping method to rapid identification of resistance in Plasmodium falciparum
Background The emergence and spread of anti-malarial resistance continues to hinder malaria control. Plasmodium falciparum, the species that causes most human malaria cases and most deaths, has shown resistance to almost all known anti-malarials.

Genome-Wide Development and Validation of Cost-Effective KASP Marker Assays for Genetic Dissection of Heat Stress Tolerance in Maize [PDF]
Maize is the third most important cereal crop worldwide. However, its production is vulnerable to heat stress, which is expected to become more and more severe in coming years. Germplasm resilient to heat stress has been identified, but its underlying genetic basis remains poorly understood.

Rapid identification of homozygosity and site of wild relative introgressions in wheat through chromosome‐specific
Summary For future food security, it is important that wheat, one of the most widely consumed crops in the world, can survive the threat of abiotic and biotic stresses. New genetic variation is currently being introduced into wheat through introgressions from its wild relatives.

Ppe.CR.1 DNA test for predicting chilling requirement in peach
Chilling requirement (CR) is an important agronomic trait controlling the floral bud break for proper flowering in peach. Even though it has been widely researched and several peach CR quantitative trait loci (QTLs) have been identified, no diagnostic ...

Comparison of TaqMan, KASP and rhAmp SNP genotyping platforms in hexaploid wheat.
Advances in high-throughput genotyping enable the generation of genome-scale data much more easily and at lower cost than ever before. However, small-scale and cost-effective high-throughput single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping technologies ...
