Development and validation of molecular markers for grain cadmium in durum wheat
2018-03-01
Abstract excerpt
Durum wheat is capable of accumulating cadmium, a toxic heavy metal, in the grain at levels that have been deemed unsafe for human consumption. Previous studies have identified genetic variation as well as markers associated with Cd accumulation in durum wheat, which can be exploited to develop low Cd cultivars. Because the phenotyping for Cd content is very expensive, KASP markers were developed from molecular ma...
