Polymorphism of microsatellite markers developed from homologous genomic regions of phaseolus vulgaris to meloidogyne ssp. resistance genes identified in soybean
DNA markers can contribute to the genetic control selection of many diseases in plants. Nematodes belonging to genus Meloidogyne gather pathogens that cause damage and yield losses in Phaseolus vulgaris. Although the sources of genetic resistance variations are known in legumes such as soybeans, little is known about this feature in common bean crops. This study aimed to characterize the polymorphism of microsatellite markers developed to extend the resistance genes of P. vulgaris to Meloidogyne spp.
