Abstract:The present work was conducted to study the genetic variation and identification of microsatellite markers linked to rust resistance in groundnut. An F 6 mapping population and three backcross populations (BC 1 F 4 , BC 2 F 3 and BC 3 F 2 ) were developed from a cross between the susceptible parent GPBD-5 and resistant parent GPBD-4. There were highly significant differences among recombinants for reaction to rust. A little difference was observed between PCV and GCV for reaction to rust. High heritability cou… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
