Genetic relationships of boxwood (Buxus L.) accessions based on genic simple sequence repeat markers
2017-08-01
Abstract excerpt
Boxwoods (Buxus L., Buxaceae) are popular woody landscape shrubs grown for their diverse forms and broad-leaved evergreen foliage. We used genic simple sequence repeat (genic-SSR) markers to assess genetic diversity and relatedness of 275 accessions from the National Boxwood Collection at the U.S. National Arboretum. Flow cytometry was conducted to determine the relative ploidy of each accession. Genic-SSR loci we...
