| Mocó cotton was the most important crop in Northeastern Brazil. Local varieties had been developed before governmental breeding programs, which should be identified and preserved as a genetic resource. The aim of this work was to select SSR markers which can be used to monitor gene flow from herbaceous to mocó cotton plants, using non transgenic upland cotton as a pollen source. Unique mocó cotton feral populations were identified in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, and mother plants and their seeds were collected. Allele frequencies were studied among fifteen plants from these populations using 64 SSR primer pairs. Ten SSR markers, with alleles exclusive to mocó or upland genotypes, were selected to monitor gene flow by paternity analysis (BNL3627; 2960;... |
