Applications of Molecular Markers in Fruit Crops for Breeding Programs—A Review

Selection and use of molecular markers for evaluation DNA polymorphism in plants are couple the most important approaches field genetics. The assessment genetic diversity using morphological is not sufficient due to little differentiating traits among species, genera or their individuals. Morphological only highly influenced by environmental factors but skilled also prerequisite find variations plant resources. Therefore, considered as efficient tools detailed based characterization fruit crops. Molecular provide new directions efforts breeders particularly variability, gene tags, localization, taxonomy, diversity, phylogenetic analysis play an role decrease time required development excellent cultivars. success technology improvement programs depends on close relationship breeders, biotechnologists, manpower good financial support. present review describes application used different
