Allelic Diversity in Plants

Allelic Diversity in Plants

Allelic diversity refers to the variety of gene forms (alleles) within a species, which is critical for the adaptability and resilience of plant populations. In natural environments, high allelic diversity enables plants to withstand diverse stresses like diseases, pests, and climate changes. In crop breeding, selecting for beneficial alleles enhances traits such as yield, disease resistance, and nutrient efficiency. Molecular tools allow breeders to identify and preserve valuable alleles, which is key in developing improved, sustainable crop varieties. This genetic diversity is essential for food security and the conservation of plant genetic resources.
