Using single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers for differentiation of strawberry cultivars in La Trinidad, Benguet

In La Trinidad, Benguet strawberry cultivars are usually planted side by side leading to difficulty in maintaining cultivar purity. It is hypothesized that improper handling of runners in open-field-planted strawberry plants may have caused mix-ups resulting in mistakenly identified cultivars. Impro...

Expressed sequence tags (ESTs) from the ANR gene was screened for putative SNPs. A total of 11 SNP markers were found and were used to genetically characterize the collected cultivars.
