In recent decades, different types of molecular markers have been used for different purposes: mapping, marker-assisted selection, characterization of genetic resources, etc. These have produced effective genotyping, but the results have been costly and time-consuming due to the small number of markers that could be tested simultaneously. Recent advances in molecular marker technologies such as the development of high-throughput genotyping platforms, genotyping by sequencing, and the release of the genome sequences of major crop plants have opened new possibilities for advancing crop improvement. This Special Issue collects 16 research studies, including the application of molecular markers in 11 crop species, from the generation of linkage maps and diversity studies to the application of marker-assisted selection and genomic prediction.Biology, life sciencesbicsscResearch & information: generalbicsscagaroseagronomic traitsapricotaromaassociation mappingbreedingbrown rice recoverycandidate genescereal cropchromosomecrop breedingdisease resistanceDNA sequencingdroughtdrought stressdurum wheatF2:3 biparental mappingflavonoid biosynthesisfruit astringencyfruit colorationgene prioritizationgene pyramidinggenetic diversitygenetic mapsgenetic relationshipgenome wide association studygenomic predictiongenomic selectiongenomicsgrain qualityGWASGWAS water usehead rice recoveryhigh resolution meltinghigh-density genetic linkage mapintrogression lineISBP markerslandracesleaf rustlinkage disequilibriummaize (Zea mays L.)mapping populationmarker assisted selectionmarker-assisted selectionMarker-assisted selectionmarker-trait associationMASMATHmicrosatellitesmilled rice recoverymilling yield traitsmolecular markersMQTLMTAsmulti-traitnear infra-red spectroscopyparental lineParPMCParPMC2-delpathogen racesPersea americanapersimmonplant breedingpopulation structurePPV resistanceQTLQTL hotspotQTL mappingrice (Oryza sativa L.)root system architectureRubusSDSsedimentation volumeselectionseminal rootsex determinationsimple sequence repeatsimple sequence repeats (SSR)SLAF-seq technologySMRT sequencingSNP markerssorghumstem rustStriga resistance/tolerancesugarcanetetraploid potatoTKWTriticum aestivumtropical maizewheat variabilitywhole genome regressionYRBiology, life sciencesResearch & information: generalSoriano José Migueledt1280544Soriano José MiguelothBOOK9910557625803321Molecular Marker Technology for Crop Improvement3017192UNINA
