    The first SSR-based genetic linkage map for cultivated groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.)

    Molecular markers and genetic linkage maps are pre-requisites for molecular breeding in any crop species. In case of peanut or groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.), an amphidiploid (4X) species, not a single genetic m...

    A microsatellite-based, gene-rich linkage map for the AA genome of Arachis (Fabaceae)

    Cultivated peanut (Arachis hypogaea) is an important crop, widely grown in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. It is highly susceptible to several biotic and abiotic stresses to which wild species are ...

    RAPD linkage map** of the shell thickness locus in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.)

    Shell thickness is an important trait in oil palm breeding programs and is the basis for the classification of the varieties of oil palm into the types dura, tenera and pisifera. This trait seems to be control...
