Abaca ( Née) is an economically important fiber crop in the Philippines. Its economic potential, however, is hampered by biotic and abiotic stresses, which are exacerbated by insufficient genomic resources for varietal identification vital for crop improvement. To address these gaps, this study aimed to discover genome-wide polymorphisms among abaca cultivars and other species and analyze their potential as genetic marker resources.
