Use of easy measurable phenotypic traits as a complementary approach to evaluate the population structure and diversity in a high heterozygous panel of tetraploid clones and cultivars by Tagliotti, Martín, Deperi, Sofia, Bedogni, Maria Cecilia, Zhang, Roufang, Manrique Carpintero, Norma C., Coombs, Joseph, Douches, David, Huarte, Marcelo Atilio

“…An accurate assessment of genetic diversity, using molecular markers, such as single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), must be able to reveal the structure of the population under study. A characterization of population structure using easy measurable phenotypic traits could be a preliminary and low-cost approach to elucidate the genetic structure of a population. …”
