Abstract
Rubus glaucus Benth (mora de castilla) is an agricultural product with one of the biggest potential within Colombian- Andean Region. In the country, along 2014 it was achieved a total production of 150 thousand tons/year and in 2015, the plants area accounted 66.770 hectares with average yielding of 11 tons per hectare per year. In this sense, the agricultural-food chain of mora de castilla in Colombia is constituted by associated producers, with the intention of increasing performances through the behavior evaluation of promising plant material against high impact - phytopathogenic agents. Thus, this work pretends to strengthen the specie characterization process of mora de castilla through last generation molecular markers. cultivars of Rubus glaucus.
