Molecular Markers and Cotton Genetic Improvement: Current Status and Future Prospects
Narrow genetic base and complex allotetraploid genome of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is stimulating efforts to avail required polymorphism for marker based breeding.The availability of draft genome sequence of G.raimondii and G.arboreum and next generation Yoga Mat Spray sequencing (NGS) technologies facilitated the development of high-throughpu
