Ecogeographical land characterization maps as a tool for assessing plant adaptation and their implications in agrobiodiversity studies (2012, background): “Furthermore, accessions representing populations that are able to grow in extreme environments are a highly-valued source of genes for plant breeders (Rao and Hodgkin 2002).”
Assessment of genetic diversity in crop plants - an overview (2017, methodology): “Many reviews have been written focusing on vital issues like changes in genetic diversity under plant breeding [1], genetic vulnerability of modern crop cultivars [2], conservation and utilization of genetic resources [3,4] assessment of genetic diversity using molecular markers [5] and measurement ”
RAPD Assessment for Identification of Clonal Identity and Genetic Stability of in vitro Propagated Chestnut Hybrids (2004, background): “In fact, it is accepted that the results obtained with molecular markers may be quite different from those obtained through morphological characters (Ramanatha Rao and Hodgkin, 2002).”
Conservation In vitro of threatened plants—Progress in the past decade (2006, background): “…their cultivation, the increased establishment and maintenance of seed banks and use of in vitro techniques have enabled botanic gardens to contribute to the successful conservation of a number of threatened plants (Maunder et al., 2001; Ramanatha Rao and Hodgkin, 2002; Pritchard et al., 2004).”
