Phenotypic Selection, Genetic Variation, and Genome-Wide SNP Fingerprinting of Typhoon-Surviving Candidate Individuals in Casuarina equisetifolia
Casuarina equisetifolia L. is a key pioneer tree species for coastal shelterbelt plantations in tropical and subtropical regions. However, long-term reliance on a limited number of superior clones has narrowed its genetic base and reduced stress resistance, which necessitates the selection of elite individuals and the...
