Genetic mapping efforts in apomicts date back several decades, but significant progress only became possible with the application of molecular mapping tools. In this chapter, we present the approaches that have been taken to apply these techniques to apomictic species, the necessary experimental steps, caveats associated with interpreting the data, and potential new marker approaches. A brief overview of our understanding of the genetics of natural apomixis is also presented.

摘要

Genetic mapping efforts in apomicts date back several decades, but significant progress only became possible with the application of molecular mapping tools. In this chapter, we present the approaches that have been taken to apply these techniques to apomictic species, the necessary experimental steps, caveats associated with interpreting the data, and potential new marker approaches. A brief overview of our understanding of the genetics of natural apomixis is also presented.
