Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Vitis vinifera L. is one of society's most important agricultural crops with a broad genetic variability. The difficulty in recognizing grapevine genotypes based on ampelographic traits and secondary metabolites prompted the development of molecular markers suitable for achieving variety genetic identification. FINDINGS: Here, we propose a comparison between a multi-locus barcoding approach based on...
