The Use and Development of Molecular Breeding Tools in Cucurbita: A Literature Review
نویسنده
چکیده
Tools for molecular mapping and marker-assisted selection are being increasingly applied to the genus Cucurbita. However, much of the work which has already been done has remained unpublished, or has been published in journals of limited circulation, such that many who work with Cucurbita may not be aware of it. This review of the literature to date is intended to provide some background for current work.
