Assessment of genetic diversity in Venezuelan rice cultivars using simple sequence repeats markers
In Venezuela, pedigree analyses indicate that the rice varieties currently under cultivation are closely related. Effective breeding programs, based on knowledge of the genetic diversity of cultivars, are needed to broaden the genetic bases of rice germplasm in the country. In this study, we used a...

In Venezuela, pedigree analyses indicate that the rice varieties currently under cultivation are closely related.
