| Abstract:
A comparison has been made between the use of morphological characters and two DNA profiling methods as a mean of determining most similar varieties in a collection of 39 chrysanthemum varieties. The use of the various approaches for grouping varieties in potential future DUS testing schemes is discussed. | |
