Marker assisted backcross breeding approach to improve blast resistance in Indian rice (Oryza sativa) variety ADT43
2014-11-01
Abstract excerpt
Marker assisted backcrossing breeding has become one of the essential tools in transferring novel genes to adapted varieties and was employed to pyramid three blast resistance genes Pi1, Pi2 and Pi33 to a popular susceptible rice variety ADT43. Gene pyramiding process was facilitated by marker aided selection for both foreground as well as background genotype. Previously reported linked molecular markers were depl...
