Abstract:Breeders need to mine the underlying genes of target traits for their improvement before the inception of the breeding program. We conducted this research to decipher the number of genes along with their interactions and linkage for seed color, flower color, and anther color, and to show the reflection of genetic divergence on phenotypic variations in segregating populations by crossing diverse flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) genotypes. Seed color showed maternal effect and appeared to be controlled by two and t… Show more
