Knowl­edge on genetic dis­tances and rela­tion­ships among breed­ing mate­ri­als has a sig­nif­i­cant impact on crop improve­ment. Mol­e­c­u­lar mark­ers are being used increas­ingly to deter­mine the genetic dis­tance between indi­vid­u­als. In this study, microsatel­lite mark­ers were used to esti...
