Microsatellite-assisted backcross selection in maize
A microsatellite marker (SSR) was chosen to simulate a target allele and three criteria (02, 04 and 06 markers per chromosome) were tested to evaluate the most efficient parameters for performing marker-assisted backcross (MAB) selection. We used 53 polymorphic SSRs to genotype 186 BC1 maize (Zea ma...
