development and characterization of a new set of genomic microsatellite markers in rice bean (vigna umbellata (thunb.) ohwi and ohashi) and their utilization in genetic diversity analysis of collections from north east india. | rice bean [vigna umbellate (thumb.) ohwi and ohashi] is an underutilized crop believed to be domesticated in the myanmar-thailand region of asia. in india, rice bean is mainly cultivated in the north-eastern hills, which is a hotspot for biological diversity. a 5' anchored pcr was used to develop microsatellite markers in rice bean. twenty-eight specific primer pairs were designed and employed to characterize sixty five ricebean accessions collected from north east india. a total of 179 alleles ... | 2017 | 28686712 |
