Molecular Markers to Assess the Hybrid Nature of an Improved Mulberry Genotype
Journal Title: Journal of Plant Science and Research - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
The mulberry genotype C-2038 developed from a hybridization programme between C-763 (MI – 0124) and CF110 (a Chinese accession) at Central Seri cultural Research and Training Institute, Berhampore was analyzed following certain parameters of the standard descriptor of mulberry. Its improved nature was established in the backdrop of the triploid check variety S-1635 (MI - 0173). The hybrid nature of C-2038 was ascertained using RAPD and SSR molecular techniques.
