Abstract
Redcurrant, Ribes rubrum L., germplasm was screened for molecular poly morphism using anchored microsatellite primers in polymerase chain rea ctions (PCRs). Eighty markers were detected using only three primers a nd 16 redcurrant genotypes were fingerprinted using these markers. The genetic relatedness of these genotypes, as determined by the anchored microsatellite markers, and the implications for redcurrant breeding programmes are examined.
