  • Patent number: 7534587
    Abstract: The invention relates to novel microsatellite markers for wheats (Triticum aestivum) and closely related species (Genus Triticeae) and to the use of said markers for the genetic analysis of plants of the Triticum aestivum species.

  • Patent number: 6720137
    Abstract: A set of a plurality of microsatellite markers is provided for plant species of the tribe Triticeae, particularly Triticum aestivum. Each of the markers are constituted by a sequence tagged site (STS) defined by two primers, specific to a particular microsatellite sequence. Each primer has an average length of 20±3 bases and flanks the particular microsatellite sequence. Each of the microsatellite markers is formed by amplification of the microsatellite sequence by a polymerase chain reaction, to form markers of different length.

  • Publication number: 20020066118
    Abstract: The invention pertains to novel genetic markers for wheats (Triticum aestivumL.) and closely related species (tribe: Triticeae) and to the use of these markers. The aim of the invention is to develop novel microsatellite markers intended for use in the genetic analysis of plants of the species Triticum aestivum and characterised by a higher level of DNA polymorphism than other molecular probes hitherto developed for the wheat genome. The invention involves the preparation of 233 microsatellite markers, or a proportion thereof, which are defined as primer pairs with associated microsatellite sequences and amplify loci of various chromosomes of the wheat genome and are therefore suitable for use in genetic marking.
