Development of a set of SSR markers for genetic polymorphism detection and interspecific hybrid jute breeding
Corchorus capsularis (white jute) and Other Fuses C.olitorius (dark jute) are the two principal cultivated species of jute that produce natural bast fiber of commercial importance.We have identified 4509 simple sequence repeat (SSR) loci from 34,163 unigene sequences of C.capsularis to develop a non-redundant set of 2079 flanking primer pairs.Among
