Segregation distortion in recombinant inbred lines of blackgram [Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper] detected by inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers

Abstract

Mapping technologies have made it possible to study the quantitatively inherited traits and to dissect quantitative variation into individual Mendelian factors. QTL (quantitative trait loci) mapping is based.on the principle of linkage disequilibrium between the marker and a genomic region influencing a quantitative trait inferred by statistical analysis [1]. The construction of linkage map is of fundamental importance for efficient exploitation of crop genetic resources.
