Genetic mapping of common buckwheat using DNA, protein and morphological markers

Hereditas. 2010 Feb;147(1):27-33. doi: 10.1111/j.1601-5223.2009.02116.x.

Abstract

Genetic mapping of F(2) progeny (n = 225) of hybrids between the Sobano variety of common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) and the Homo wild accession (F. esculentum var. homotropicum) was carried out using randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), sequence-tagged site (STS) and seed protein subunit markers, and three morphological traits. Ten linkage groups were identified, involving 87 RAPD markers, 12 STS markers, four seed protein subunit (PS(62)/PS(59), PS(49.8)/PS(51.4), PS(44)/PS(42.9), and PS(39.9)/PS(37.8)) markers, and three morphological alleles controlling homo/long style (H/s), shattering habit (Sht/sht), and acute/obtuse achene ridge (Ac/ac), covering a total of 655.2 cM.
