“…However, PCR-RFLP has two inherent limitations: First, it is difficult to design a universal primer that can amplify SLG and SRK alleles, and second, the presence of several homologous Plant Breeding -New Perspectives genes in Brassicaceae plants makes PCR amplification of specific SLG or SRK alleles more difficult [87]. To help in radish hybridization, the Ogura CMS approach created further advanced radish cultivars (cultivars with improved yield and quality) [13].…”

“…Radishes' swelling taproots may take the shape of an oval, tapering, or cylindrical object [12]. Furthermore, cylindrical root variations are often collected mechanically [13]. Radish roots are high in antler velvet, generate beneficial phytochemicals, have cancer-preventive effects, and increase the flavor of Brassica products greatly [14].…”

In tropical, subtropical, and temperate climates, radish (Raphanus sativus L.) is a popular root vegetable. Radish diversity is intense from the eastern Mediterranean to the Caspian Sea. Many radish varieties have varied leaf morphology, root color, size, shape, flavor, vernalization requirements, and maturity times. Early radish variants were long and tapered rather than cylindrical, bulbous, elliptic, or spherical. For black Spanish radish, European-cultivated variety, and Asian-cultivated radish, three separate domestication processes occurred. The original radishes were black, followed by white in the 1500s then red and round in the 1700s. These are R. sativus L. var. radicula (sativus) or R. sativus L. var. niger radishes. Because of protogyny, self-incompatibility, open architecture, and biennial bolting, radish crosses readily. The fundamental methods for using heterotic breeding potential are SI, CMS, and doubled haploids (DH). This chapter discusses the various breeding strategies like inbred line development by the use of self-incompatibility, hybrid development by using male sterility system, population improvement, mutation breeding, haploid breeding, breeding strategies for biotic and abiotic stresses, QTL mapping, and genome wide and genomic tool in radish. Rapid developments in our understanding of advanced biotechnology technologies will increase our ability to identify cultivars and parental lines, check seed genetic purity, analyze phylogenetic links and genetic diversity, and add specific transgenic traits.

“…However, the own limitation of PCR-RFLP, first, is challenging to design a universal primer that can amplify SLG and SRK alleles; second, the presence of multiple genes homologous to the SLG or SRK genes in Brassicaceae plants aggravates PCR amplification of specific SLG or SRK alleles [51][52][53]. Additional advanced radish cultivars (cultivars with improved yield and higher quality) were also produced by the Ogura CMS method to assist in radish hybrid [54]. This variety shows that bulk selection, mixed mass pedigree selection or bud pollination will take 8-12 years to produce a new variety, new varieties must be produced from other genetic means [55].…”

Radish is a member of the Cruciferae family. The important traits for radish breeding include high yield, early maturity, late bolting, pungency, cold-hardiness, drought resistance, heat tolerance and soil adaptability. For successful radish production, one needs to the understand nature and behaviour of the flower and very important to identify the S haplotypes of parental lines to produce F1 hybrids based on self-incompatibility to get rid of laborious hand emasculation in radish. Therefore, further breeding programmes depend on inter-specific and intra-specific hybridization, which is vital in genomic studies and crop improvement by introducing desirable agronomic characters. It is essential to acquire detailed genetic information on chromosomes and inheritance. Genomics is now at the core of radish breeding to study the underlying differences in genotypes. Moreover, researchers have produced transgenic radishes with various agronomic characteristics over the last decade.
