Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Pear (Pyrus spp.) is an economically important temperate fruit tree worldwide. In the past decade, significant progress has been made in pear molecular genetics based on DNA research, but the number of molecular markers is still quite limited, which hardly satisfies the increasing needs of geneticists and breeders. RESULTS: In this study, a total of 156,396 simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci were...
