Application of Molecular Markers on Grapevine Genetics and Breeding

Molecular marker has been widely used on various aspects of grapevine breeding,which is one of important genetic markers developed from molecular biology.Molecular markers facilitated the research on investigation the origin of existed grapevine cultivars and provided a powerful tool for creating of new grapevine cultivars.The application of molecular markers,genetic mapping and molecular marker-assisted breeding in grapevine germplasm in recent years were summarized and the application prospects of molecular markers in grapevine breeding were evaluated in this paper.What's more,the existed problems in grapevine breeding were pointed out to provide foundations for molecular markers application in germlpasm resource research and marker-assisted breeding grapevine.
