Notes:
Summary A polymorphic microsatellite locus has been located closely linked to the Waxy gene of rice. Primers were designed to allow detection of the microsatellite by utilising the polymerase chain reaction. In screen of 13 commercial rice varieties, four different alleles were found, demonstrating the potential of this marker in commercial rice breeding for starch quality.
