Its core areas include: QTL mapping or gene discovery, Marker assisted selection, genomic selection, Genetic engineering, Genetic transformation, Issues in Biosafety and Intellectual Property.
Both the 93 polymorphic loci and the 31 polymorphic primers might provide a reliable molecular marker system for grass carp genomic DNA polymorphism analysis.
The genomic DNA PCR indicated that the genetic homogeneity between NIL-PL01 and NIL-APL01 reached 98.6%, which were being used in screening the molecular marker linked to apetalous trait.
