Development of microsatellite markers in canary seed (Phalaris canariensis L.)
2011-12-01
Abstract excerpt
Annual canarygrass, commonly known as canary seed (Phalaris canariensis L.), is a self-pollinated diploid cereal (2n = 12) with a genome size of 3,800 Mbp. Canary seed is presently used for bird-feed with a potential to develop it for human consumption. Marker-assisted selection can be used to accelerate breeding of new canary seed cultivars. Microsatellites or simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers generally show a...
