Abstract excerpt
Molecular and biochemical techniques are beneficial in generating markers to investigate interesting genes in populations. SSRs, as genetic markers, provide significant advantages over traditional techniques of breeding and identifying essential traits. Under storage circumstances, the bruchid beetle Callosobruchus sp. can cause significant yield loss in blackgram. Hence, the identification of bruchid-resistant...
