Recent advancements in molecular marker-assisted selection and applications in plant breeding programmes [PDF]
Background DNA markers improved the productivity and accuracy of classical plant breeding by means of marker-assisted selection (MAS). The enormous number of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) mapping read for different plant species have given a plenitude ...

Marker-Assisted Selection in Breeding for Fruit Trait Improvement: A Review. [PDF]
Breeding fruit species is time-consuming and expensive. With few exceptions, trees are likely the worst species to work with in terms of genetics and breeding.

Drought Tolerance and Application of Marker-Assisted Selection in Sorghum. [PDF]
Simple Summary Sorghum is a climate-resilient crop grown in limited rainfall areas globally. However, climate change has increased temperature and shortened rainfall durations, which has constrained crop yield. We reviewed mechanisms of drought tolerance
