Abstract

The advent of molecular marker technology changed methods of plant breeding in a positive direction. Since the boom of the genomic sequencing era, several advancements and innovations originating in the field of molecular markers are enhancing the pace of crop improvement. Over the decades, many reviews on molecular markers have been published, especially pertaining to their application in plant breeding. Here we provide an update on the evolution of marker technologies and their applications for accelerating genetic gains in crops...
