Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: SSR markers are used for a myriad of genetic analyses, such as genotyping, parentage analysis or genetic structure, due to their high polymorphism, co-dominance and genomic ubiquity. Most downstream analysis tools usually require a diploid dataset but some plant species may have higher ploidy levels or there may be genotypes within the species that differ in ploidy level. Additionally, SSR markers can...
