Abstract excerpt
We previously identified fs10.1 as a major QTL controlling fruit shape (index of length to width) in an interspecific F(2) cross of Capsicum annuum (round fruit) × C. chinense (elongated fruit) in pepper. To more precisely map and characterize the QTL, we constructed near-isogenic lines for fs10.1 and mapped it in a BC(4)F(2) population. In this population, fs10.1 segregated as a Mendelian locus and mapped 0.3 cM...
