Seeds, Rootstocks & BreedingWhy can adding many closely linked mango markers contribute less information than expected?
Markers inherited together can provide partly redundant information. Mango population-genetic work may reduce that redundancy before estimating relationships or ancestry. For a breeding decision, ask whether the selected panel represents informative independent variation rather than judging it only by the total marker count. The useful measure is how well the analysis resolves its intended question.
