Abstract excerpt
Most plant species are known to be either ancient or recent polyploids, containing more than one genome as a result of past interspecific hybridization events (allopolyploidy) and/or genome doubling (autopolyploidy). Genotyping in polyploid species offers a set of unique challenges. Most molecular marker methodologies are made more complex by polyploidy, as multilocus alleles are generally produced when a single...
