    In hexaploid bread wheat, ten members of the IWMMN collaborated in extending the microsatellite genetic map. Among a much larger number of microsatellite primer pairs developed as a part of the WMC, 58 out of 176 primer pairs tested were found to be polymorphic between the parents of the ITMI mapping population W7984 x Opata 85. This population was used earlier for the construction of RFLP maps in bread wheat. Using the ITMIpop and a framework map prepared for this purpose, a total of 66 microsa…Read more
