Abstract excerpt
Broccoli is rich in glucosinolates (GSLs), secondary metabolites that contribute to both plant defense and human health. Optimizing the composition of major aliphatic GSLs is an important breeding objective, yet robust molecular markers for marker-assisted selection (MAS) remain limited. In this study, candidate gene-based kompetitive allele-specific PCR (KASP) markers were developed from conserved GSL...
