Abstract:

Peanut yield is greatly influenced by shelling percentage (SP) and plant height (PH). Marker-assisted selection for shelling percentage and plant height improvement can be facilitated by detecting additive and epistatic QTLs, understanding their interactions with environment, as well as the genetic relationship between SP and PH. In a four-year experiment, the variations of SP and PH were evaluated with the recombinant inbred line population derived from the cross between Yuanza 9102 and Xuzhou 68-4. QTLs associated with SP and PH were analyzed using a high density linkage map and QTLNetwork 2.0 software. The results showed that SP and PH were negatively correlated (P < 0.01). Thirteen and eight additive QTLs were identified for SP and PH, respectively. Major loci qSPA05.2 and qSPA09.1 for SP and major locus qPHA09.1 for PH were repeatedly detected in three or four years. Six pairs of epistatic QTLs for SP and five pairs of epistatic QTLs for PH were identified, and they all had interaction effects with environment. qSPA09.1 and qPHA09.1 were located in the same interval (Ad91I24-AGGS2492) on chromosome A09. The additive effect of this locus for SP variation decreased from 14.37% to 5.50% after eliminating the PH effect, suggesting the pleiotropism of qSPA09.1 for SP and qPHA09.1 for PH.
