Abstract excerpt
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are preferred markers for DNA fingerprinting and diversity studies in cacao (Theobroma cacao L.). Yet, a consensus SNP panel with a minimum number of SNPs for optimal identity analysis is unavailable for cacao. An initial set of 146 SNP panels of varying sizes were assembled based on heterozygosity, linkage disequilibrium (LD), linkage group (LG) distribution, major allele...
