Identifying and measuring quantitative variability continues to be challenging, even though some progress has been made (e.g. QTLs analysis and mapping). This has been possible because of the new kinds of molecular markers that have been developed and the accompanying throughput technologies. QTLs are more precisely mapped, in addition to the increased precision of linkage maps (marker‐dense). The abundance of molecular markers and availability of more accessible genomic tools has made it easier for researchers to readily characterize biodiversity.
