RosBREED Cherry Consortium

RosBREED Cherry Consortium

The cherry genotyping panel was developed by RosBREED, a multi-institutional, multi-national project dedicated to the improvement of the rosaceous crops using targeted genomics applications and tools to enhance the efficiency of breeding programs. The SNPs were developed for use on worldwide breeding germplasm and include sanger-based eSNPs and SNPs identified from the paired end sequencing of 16 important founder accessions of sweet cherry and eight founder accessions of tart cherry. The Community has provided a cluster file for the RosBREED Cherry Genotyping array suitable for fast automated analysis of all project sizes. This panel is suitable as base content for over 80,000 Add-On markers for a customized Cherry genotyping array.
