Use of a single seed is very useful for genetic studies on Vitis vinifera. However, molecular markers
require a fair amount of high purity DNA. Grapevine contains high concentrations of polysaccharides,
polyphenols, tannins and other secondary metabolites. These compounds may hamper the
DNA isolation processes and subsequent analysis. In this study...
