Genetic variability of popping quality traits and microsatellite-based characterization of popcorn inbreds for utilization in breeding programme

Abstract: Popcorn is a popular snack item worldwide. The genetic base of popcorn germplasm is quite narrow, which resulted in limited number of popcorn hybrids. Here, a set of sub-tropically adapted 39 popcorn inbreds of exotic- and indigenous-origin, were characterized using morphological traits and molecular markers for their effective utilization in hybrid breeding. Significant variation for grain popping percentage (GPP: 86.0-98.0%), percent popping expansion (PPE: 1493-3213%) and volume after popping (VAP: 210-315m… Show more
