Genetic mapping and diagnostic marker development for a co-localization interval conferring resistance to both Aspergillus flavus infection and aflatoxin production in peanut.

Abstract excerpt

Aflatoxin contamination caused by Aspergillus flavus threatens the development of peanut industry, breeding aflatoxin-resistant peanut varieties are highly needed. In this study, a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population was developed from a cross between Zhonghua 16 and Kainong H03-3-a high-oleic acid peanut line exhibiting resistance to both A. flavus infection and aflatoxin production. Using this RIL...
