KASPar SNP markers linked to Ascochyta blight resistance gene in chickpea
| Division: | Biotechnology / None | | Category: | Intermediate | | Region: | Saskatoon | | City: | Saskatoon, SK | | School: | Evan Hardy Collegiate | | Abstract: | Ascochyta blight is the major constraint to chickpea productivity in chickpea-growing regions of the world. We have designed eight KASPar SNP markers linked to ascochyta blight resistance gene and carried out KASPar SNP genotyping assays in two parental lines, ILC 72 and CR5-10, and ninety-four RILs . The validated mapped loci will be available for future routine use in high-throughput SNP genotyping assays. |
