Molecular contribution to selection of intergeneric hybrids between sugarcane and the wild species Erianthus arundinaceus
2000-12-01
Abstract excerpt
Erianthus arundinaceus has great potential as a germplasm source for better ratoonability, vigour, tolerance to environmental stresses, and disease resistance in sugarcane. Many unsuccessful attempts have been made to introduce these characters into modern sugarcane cultivars. We report on significant progress made since molecular tools were implemented. Sequence-tagged PCR, revealing size variation in the 5S rDNA...
