Abstract
Owing to the presence of desirable characteristics like extralong and slender grains, delicious taste, superior aroma and distinct flavor, Basmati rice varieties are immensely popular are fetching higher prices in the market than non Basmati rice varieties. Basmati rice is commonly adulterated with many look alike, long grain non Basmati rice varieties. Microsatellite markers (SSRs) have proven to be the markers of choice to detect Basmati adulteration. Here, we report the development of a novel InDel based STS marker, which can differentiate most of the traditional Basmati from non-Basmati rice varieties.
