Advances in Genetic Diversity Analysis in Fruit Tree Crops

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Progress in Botany 77

Part of the book series: Progress in Botany ((BOTANY,volume 77))

Abstract

Critical advances in the application of molecular tools to analyze genetic diversity in annual and perennial crops have taken place in the last two decades. Although in most cases the new technologies are first developed in annual crops, some particularities of most fruit crops, such as their perennial nature, long generation time, large individual size, or vegetative propagation, make the advantages of using these new approaches even more relevant in these species. In this work, the information available on the different strategies used to analyze genetic diversity in temperate and tropical fruit tree species using molecular approaches is reviewed. Special attention is given to the potential of next-generation sequencing and the combination of genomic tools with geographic information systems.
