Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: AhRt1 controlling red testa color in peanut was fine-mapped to an interval of 580 kb on chromosome A03, and one gene encoding bHLH transcriptional factor was identified as the putative candidate gene. Peanut with red testa has higher nutritional and economic value than the traditional pink testa varieties. Identification of genes controlling red testa color will accelerate the breeding program and...
