Marker-assisted selection:A smart biotechnological strategy for modern plant breeding

Plant breeders and geneticists use molecular marker-assisted selection also called as MAS as a useful approach for breeding of plant to make selection more efficient and speed up the breeding cycle. MAS can be more efficient, effective, and reliable than phenotypic selection.  Molecular markers are...
