Combining bacterial blight resistance and Basmati quality characteristics by phenotypic and molecular marker-assisted selection in rice

TL;DR: Recombinants having enhanced resistance to BB, Basmati quality and desirable agronomic traits were identified, which can either be directly developed into commercial varieties or used as immediate donors of BB resistance in BasMati breeding programs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integrating marker assisted background analysis with foreground selection for identification of superior bacterial blight resistant recombinants in Basmati rice

TL;DR: This work integrated background analysis using mapped microsatellite markers with foreground selection to identify superior lines that combine useful genes from a non-Basmati BB resistance donor line IRBB55 with grain and cooking quality characteristics of the popular Basmati rice variety 'Pusa BasMati I' (PB 1) employing backcross pedigree strategy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Next Generation Sequencing Technologies: The Doorway to the Unexplored Genomics of Non-Model Plants.

TL;DR: How different Next Gen Sequencing platforms, as well as recent advances in NGS based high throughput genotyping technologies are rewarding efforts on de-novo whole genome/transcriptome sequencing, development of genome wide sequence based markers resources for improvement of non-model crops that are less costly than phenotyping is explored.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular fingerprinting of hybrids and assessment of genetic purity of hybrid seeds in rice using microsatellite markers

TL;DR: The unique value of the restorer gene linked marker for testing the genetic purity of hybrid seeds is demonstrated for the first time.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification, characterization and utilization of unigene derived microsatellite markers in tea (Camellia sinensis L.)

TL;DR: UGMS markers identified and characterized in this study provided insight about the abundance and distribution of SSR in the expressed genome of C. sinensis, suggesting highly heterogeneous nature of tea.
