Because of the economic importance of the female plants, we want to cultivate more female date palms. The flowing time of date palms is around 8-10 years, but we cant wait up to 8-10 years. So, does anyone know of any molecular markers that would be specific for sex determination at the seedling stage? Any other suggestions for sex differentiation?
Yes, Uzay good publication.
Arti, it seems they applied for patent. Write them and find out.

Good Luck!!!
Hi!
HAU (Haryana Agricultural University) guys developed a marker using SCAR to identify at seedling stage. Ms Charu Mishra, developed the technology. You can contact them for the publication they certainly help you. See the link also.

The Date Palm Genome paper describe some markers: http://www.nature.com/nbt/journal/v29/n6/full/nbt.1860.html

Flow cytometry analysis may be useful for sex determination of date palm.
