Morphoagronomic characterization of plants is not always feasible or sometimes labor intensive. Employing chloroplast, mitochondrial, and nuclear genome diversity using molecular biology tools will enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of revealing identity differences between genotypes. Using organelle and nuclear genome diversity can also answer a broad range of genetic, evolutionary relationships, and ecological questions.
