Abstract excerpt
Bougainvillea (Bougainvillea spp.) is an important ornamental shrub, yet its cultivar identification and genetic background remain poorly characterized. To address this, we developed 18 polymorphic SSR markers based on the B. glabra ‘Formosa’ genome and used them to analyze 203 Bougainvillea cultivars. These markers exhibited high discriminative power, successfully differentiating all accessions and revealing...
