Phylogenetic analysis of two single-copy nuclear genes revealed origin of tetraploid barley Hordeum marinum.
Sea barley Hordeum marinum is an important germplasm resource.However, the origin of this tetraploid H.marinum subsp.gussoneanum is still unclear, which has caused great perplexity to the exploration and utilization of germplasm resources.We used two single-copy nuclear genes, thioredoxin-like gene (TRX) and waxy1 gene encoding granule-bound starch
