Chromosome Mapping of 5S Ribosomal Genes in Indo-Pacific and Atlantic Muraenidae: Comparative Analysis by Dual Colour Fluorescence In Situ Hybridisation.

abstract：:Bacterial fruit blotch (BFB) causes losses in melon marketable yield. However, until now, there has been no information about the genetic loci responsible for resistance to the disease or their pattern of inheritance. We determined the inheritance pattern of BFB resistance from a segregating population of 491 F2 indiv...
