Two Alleles of ahFAD2B Control the High Oleic Acid Trait in Cultivated Peanut
2009-11-01
Abstract excerpt
A high oleic:linoleic acid ratio (O/L) in peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) seeds is controlled primarily by two recessive genes, ahFAD2A and ahFAD2B (ol₁ and ol₂). Marker-assisted breeding for high O/L could become routine provided that user-friendly and economical markers could be developed that would target mutant alleles underlying the trait. Previously, a mutant allele of ahFAD2A was characterized as having a 448G...
