Allozyme genetics and mating systems of Cuphea Laminuligera and Cuphea lutea

Creator:: Krueger, Sharon K.
Abstract:: Cuphea laminuligera Koehne and Cuphea lutea Rose in Koehne are undomesticated species having potential as oilseed crops. Genetic markers and mating systems have not been described for these species. Our objectives were to survey these species for allozyme variation, analyze the segregation and linkage of polymorphic loci, estimate autofertility and...

Genetic mapping of Cuphea lanceolata : molecular-marker linkage to quantitative-trait loci affecting seed capric acid, seed oil, and embryo development

Creator:: Webb, David M. (David Morton), 1954-
Abstract:: Cuphea is an herbaceous genus having species whose seed storage lipids are predominantly medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs). Cuphea lanceolate Ait, and Cuphea viscosissima Jacq. are central to the breeding of Cuphea as a new commercial source of MCTs. The objectives of this thesis were to develop a reliable method to extract...

Marker development, genome mapping, and cloning of candidate disease resistance genes in sunflower, Helianthus annuus L

Creator:: Gedil, Melaku Ayele
Abstract:: The level of polymorphisms of many biochemical and DNA markers are low in cultivated sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.). The number of mapped public DNA markers is limited. Molecular markers have not been developed for the most important diseases of sunflower, such as downy mildew. The objectives of this study were...

Mapping quantitative trait loci underlying genome-wide recombination rate and mating system differences in meadowfoam

Creator:: Kishore, Venkata Krishna
Abstract:: Meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba Bentham; Order: Brassicales; Family: Limnanthaceae) is a self-compatible, predominantly allogamous, insect pollinated species. Meadowfoam oil is a source of novel unsaturated very-long-chain (VLC) seed oils (C₂₀ and C₂₂) with low concentrations of saturated fatty acids (typically less than 2%) and outstanding oxidative stability. Here we report the...

Breeding tools for Cuphea : An updated genetic linkage map and fatty acid mutant candidate gene analysis

Creator:: Powers, Carol Anne
Abstract:: Medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs) are important industrial feedstocks for soaps, detergents and surfactants. Interspecific lines derived from Cuphea lanceolata and Cup hea viscosissima are being domesticated as a temperate source of MCFAs. These species also serve as model organisms for understanding the biosynthesis of MCFAs in seeds. Various markers...

Genetics of low erucic acid and cytological analyses of wide hybrids in meadowfoam

Creator:: Gandhi, Sonali Dilip
Abstract:: Cultivated meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba Benth.) is an annual oil seed crop native to southern Oregon. California and British Columbia. The genus Limnanthes is composed of nine species and divided into two sections, Inflexae and Reflexae. The seed oil of meadowfoam is a rich source of erucic acid and several novel...

DNA fingerprinting and genome mapping in meadowfoam

Creator:: Katengam, Sureeporn
Abstract:: Marker information in the new oilseed crop, meadowfoam, is limited. Molecular markers to facilitate meadowfoam breeding and cultivar improvement are not available. The knowledge of genetic relationships among recent germplasm is not known. The objectives of this study were (i) to gain an understanding of genetic diversity and relationship patterns...

Genetics of tocopherol composition in sunflower seed

Creator:: Hass, Catherine G.
Abstract:: Tocopherols are plant secondary metabolites that are known collectively as vitamin E. Tocopherol compounds act as potent antioxidants by quenching free radicals and protecting fatty acids from oxidative damage. In humans (in vivo) tocopherols protect membrane lipids from breaking down, while in oils (in vitro) tocopherols protect fatty acids from...

Molecular mechanisms underlying the high oleic acid phenotype in sunflower

Creator:: Schuppert, Gunnar Felix
Abstract:: Wildtype sunflower typically produces 12-24% oleic acid (18:1) and 70-82% linoleic acid (18:2). High-oleic sunflower, by contrast, produces up to 80-94% oleic acid. The monounsaturated oleic acid has a greater oxidative stability than the polyunsaturated linoleic acid, predominant in wildtype sunflower, and has greater nutritional benefits than polyunsaturated and saturated...
