Simple sequence repeat marker development and fingerprinting in Cuphea lanceolata Ait. and C. viscosissima Jacq

Creator:

Karmarkar, Vidyadhar M.

Abstract:

Microsatellites or simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are highthroughput sequence based DNA markers that have been exploited as tools for measuring genetic distance and diversity in evolutionary studies, protection of intellectual property, genetic resource conservation management, cultivar identification and molecular breeding of crop plants. We isolated and sequenced 1095 clones from...

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...
