PCR-based landmark unique gene (PLUG) markers effectively assign homoeologous wheat genes to A, B and D genomes

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>EST-PCR markers normally represent specific products from target genes, and are therefore effective tools for genetic analysis. However, because wheat is an allohexaploid plant, PCR products derived from homoeologous genes are often...
