Microsatellite (SSR) variation in Barley germplasm and its potential use for marker assisted selection in scald resistance breeding

摘要: caused by Rhynchosporium secalis) is one of the major plant diseases barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivation in central Anatolia and transitional zones Turkey. Eighty germplasm consisting 40 resistant sensitive lines provided Central Research Institute Field Crops were screened with six simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers to assess magnitude pattern genetic diversity, as well investigate potential use these for efficient scald breeding program future. Estimated parameters indicated that (He=0.43) (He=0.40) still maintain large similar diversity. However, variation among was higher (46%) than (39%). Especially, presence high diversity (e.g., R25, R39) suggests this could be an important drive future programs. The results study also revealed Bmag6 Bmag206 SSR utilized pre-screening number resistance programs reduced time, cost labor.
