  • Publication number: 20110008793
    Abstract: Polymorphic maize DNA loci useful for genotyping between at least two varieties of maize. Sequences of the loci are useful for designing primers and probe oligonucleotides for detecting polymorphisms in maize DNA. Polymorphisms are useful for genotyping applications in maize. The polymorphic markers are useful to establish marker/trait associations, e.g. in linkage disequilibrium mapping and association studies, positional cloning and transgenic applications, marker-aided breeding and marker-assisted selection, hybrid prediction and identity by descent studies. The polymorphic markers are also useful in mapping libraries of DNA clones, e.g. for maize QTLs and genes linked to polymorphisms.

  • Publication number: 20100240061
    Abstract: Polymorphic soybean DNA loci useful for genotyping between at least two varieties of soybean. Sequences of the loci are useful for designing primers and probe oligonucleotides for detecting polymorphisms in soybean DNA. Polymorphisms are useful for genotyping applications in soybean. The polymorphic markers are useful to establish marker/trait associations, e.g. in linkage disequilibrium mapping and association studies, positional cloning and transgenic applications, marker-aided breeding and marker-assisted selection, and identity by descent studies. The polymorphic markers are also useful in mapping libraries of DNA clones, e.g. for soybean QTLs and genes linked to polymorphisms.

  • Publication number: 20100223293
    Abstract: Polymorphic corn DNA loci useful for genotyping between at least two varieties of corn. Sequences of the loci are useful for designing primers and probe oligonucleotides for detecting polymorphisms in corn DNA. Polymorphisms are useful for genotyping applications in corn. The polymorphic markers are useful to establish marker/trait associations, e.g. in linkage disequilibrium mapping and association studies, positional cloning and transgenic applications, marker-aided breeding and marker-assisted selection, and identity by descent studies. The polymorphic markers are also useful in mapping libraries of DNA clones, e.g. for corn QTLs and genes linked to polymorphisms.
