Introgression analysis of an interspecific hybrid population in peanuts (Arachis hypogaea L.) using RFLP and RAPD markers

Forty-six introgression lines (F10C9) from a cross between Arachis hypogaea L. (2n = 4x = 40) and A. cardenasii Krapov. W the smallest introgressed fragments were detected by single RFLP markers and the largest were detected by three or four adjacent markers and represented introgressed segments of 30–40 cM. Similar results were obtained with RAPD markers, although markers detecting introgressed fragments could not be placed on the peanut linkage map. Introgression into both A. hypogaea genomes was detected and its implication in breedi...
