Microsatellites and Molecular Breeding: Exploitation of Microsatellite Variability for the Analysis of a Monotonous Genome

  • Chapter
Molecular Techniques in Crop Improvement

Abstract

Molecular markers and especially those based on selectively neutral DNA sequence polymorphisms have revolutionized the old art of plant breeding, They facilitate the reliable identification of clones, breeding lines, hybrids and cultivars, allow the monitoring of introgression of alien DNA into cultivated germplasm, and the estimation of genetic diversity in germplasm collections, Further, for nearly every important crop, advanced high-density DNA marker maps are now available that provide a basis for marker-assisted selection of agronomically useful traits, pyramiding of resistance genes, and the isolation of these and other important genes by map-based cloning, In future, molecular marker techniques clearly will gain more and more influence on plant breeding, and will speed up breeding processes considerably (see reviews by Tanksley et al, 1995, Winter and Kahl 1995).
