Developing a core set or subsets of large germplasm collections: an overview
Year: 1996
Type: article
Abstract: The concept of developing core germplasm set as a minimal yet diverse set, representing diversity of the germplasm collection has attracted wide attention in recent years with the expectation that it will provide an effective window to access the crucial genetic diversity. Procedures for selection of core entries have been considered in view of the available information on core collections for Glycine spp., wheat, barley, okra and others. An example of constituting a subset in okra and its proposed extension in Sesamum is given.
