Genetic Variability of 27 Traits in a Core Collection of Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.)

Genetic Variability of 27 Traits in a Core Collection of Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.)

Assessment of genetic variability of plant core germplasm is needed for efficient germplasm utilization in breeding improvement. A total of 391 accessions of a flax core collection, which preserves the variation present in the world collection of 3,378 accessions maintained by Plant Gene Resources o...
