Abstract excerpt
A major constraint to the application of biotechnology to the improvement of the allotetraploid peanut, or groundnut ( Arachis hypogaea L.), has been the paucity of polymorphism among germplasm lines using biochemical (seed proteins, isozymes) and DNA markers (RFLPs and RAPDs). Six sequence-tagged microsatellite (STMS) markers were previously available that revealed polymorphism in cultivated peanut. Here, we...
