Construction of an Intraspecific Linkage Map of Jute

Intraspecific linkage map construction and QTL mapping of yield and fiber quality of Gossypium babardense

Gossypium barbadense, famous for the superior quality of its fibers, is the second most cultivated cotton in the world. In order to determine the genetic basis of its agronomic traits, a linkage map was constructed and QTLs were analyzed. A total of 15,971 markers, including gSSRs, EST-SSRs, SRAPs, and SSCP-SNPs, were used to construct an intraspecific linkage map of G. barbadense with 124 F2 i...

Construction of a genetic linkage map of the model legume Lotus japonicus using an intraspecific F2 population.

Among leguminous plants, the model legume Lotus japonicus (Regel) Larsen has many biological and genetic advantages. We have developed a genetic linkage map of L. japonicus based on amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP), simple sequence repeat polymorphism (SSRP) and derived cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (dCAPS). The F2 mapping population used was derived from a cross between t...

Genetic Linkage Map and QTL Analysis of Agronomic and Fiber Quality Traits in an Intraspecific Population

Molecular techniques have been developed that can enhance breeding efficiency for quantitatively inherited traits, many of which are economically important. Examples include yield, yield components, and fiber properties. Such traits do not consistently fall into discrete classes because environmental conditions greatly modify their performance. Molecular markers such as restriction fragment len...

Linkage Map Construction for Silkworm (Bombyx mori L.) Based on Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism Markers

The domesticated silkworm, Bombyx mori, is of high commercial importance as a silk producer and is also widely used for implementation of basic and applied research. It is important to understand its genome organization using molecular markers for genetic studies and for breeding purposes. In this study, a genetic linkage map using 204 amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers was d...
