“…MAS is used in several commercial crops; for example, the common bean (Faleiro et al, 2004), maize (Prasanna et al, 2010), rice (Tabien et al, 2000;Gouda et al, 2013), cotton (Fang et al, 2010;Xiao et al, 2010), and soybean (Santana et al, 2014). Although MAS is a selection strategy that is being increasingly used in public and private research institutions worldwide, it tends to be predominantly based on DNA genotyping systems obtained from young leaves (Yap et al, 2016;Alkimim et al, 2017;Qi et al, 2017).…”
