Abstract:Understanding the mechanism and nature of resistance genes in crop plants is essential for its use in new breeding techniques. Previously, a dominant rust resistance gene was fine-mapped within a 1.2 cM interval in chromosome A03 of groundnut. Here, the rust resistance gene, VG9514-Rgene was isolated through map based cloning. Sequencing of the gene from resistant and susceptible plants revealed non-synonymous mutations in the TIR, NBS and LRR region of R-protein. Genetic mapping of these SNPs-based markers co… Show more
