Extricating the allelic variation, population structure and genetic potential in buckwheat genotypes and substantiation of high yielding and stable genotypes with superior biochemical quality.

Abstract excerpt

Buckwheat is an underutilized crop with high nutritional values and antioxidant properties. The study was conducted with an aim to assess the genetic variability of 37 Fagopyrum esculentum Moench. and 67 Fagopyrum tataricum Gaertn. accessions using agro-morphological, biochemical, and microsatellite markers. For yield per plant, accessions, namely, IC24297, IC26591, and IC13413, with superior performances were...
