“…For the fingerprinting of the broccoli lines, few KASP markers will be more cost effective and flexible. KASP assay has been widely used by plant breeders for genetic diversity study, genetic mapping, and genetic purity test in several major crops including pigeon pea (Saxena et al, 2012), chickpea (Hiremath et al, 2012), maize (Jagtap et al, 2020), cotton (Islam et al, 2015), tomato (Devran et al, 2016), peanut (Zhao et al, 2017), wheat (Rasheed et al, 2016), and rice (Pariasca-Tanaka et al, 2015;Cheon et al, 2018;Steele et al, 2018;Yang G. et al, 2019). In the present study, out of 28,220 filtered SNPs, 13,621 SNPs with PIC values between 0.2 and 0.5 were retained for KASP assay design.…”
