A Five-Locus SSR Molecular-Affinity Framework Provides Redundancy Context for Previously Identified Elite-Relevant Lines in a 'Morita II'-Derived Stevia rebaudiana Breeding Collection.

Abstract excerpt

The molecular management of elite-relevant lines in clonally exploited crops requires more than broad genetic structure alone. In Stevia rebaudiana, breeding materials derived from cv. 'Morita II' may retain useful variation while also concentrating molecularly similar lines, increasing redundancy within selection pipelines. This study assessed whether a reduced five-locus SSR dataset could provide an operational...
