INHERITANCE AND LINKAGE STUDIES IN SOYBEAN
Main Article Content
Abstract
Inheritance of nine morphological characters in six crosses of soybean revealed hypocotyl colour (Hphp), petal colour (Wtwtl,leaflet shape (LIl2lrW, growth habit (Dttdttl, pubescent pods (P2Pz) and pod shattering (Shtsht) each to be governed by a single gene whereall, seed coat colour (GtG2gtg2) and defective seed coat (DetD~detdez)were under digenic control. Pod colour (LtL2hh) gave monogenic and digenic segregation in different crosses. Out of 122 joint segregations, significant linkages was observed in 3S cases with the crossing over values for different gene pairs in the range of 1.08-46.600/•. Based on the pool data ofstraight and reciprocal crosses three gene maps are constructed. Linkage association for the characters, viz., hypocotyl colour, leaflet shape, growth habit, pod shattering, etc. could not be established.
