Abstract:

Seed size-related traits are the direct factors determining the yield of peanut. To identify the QTL related to seed size-related traits, a recombinant inbred lines (RIL) population (188 progenies) derived from Zhonghua 16 × J11 was used in this study. A genetic linkage map of 947.3 cM in length was constructed, containing 21 linkage groups and 289 SSR markers. Seed size-related traits showed extensive variations in two years’ phenotyping. Between most of the traits with significant correlation. Based on the genetic map, we detected 66 QTL with the explained phenotypic variance (PVE) of 3.23%-33.01% were detected using the WinCart 2.5 software. The number of QTL for seed length (SL), seed width (SW), ratio of seed length to width (LWR) and hundred seed weight (HSW) were 18, 16, 18, and 14, respectively. Notably, the A05A1500-A05A1530 interval on Chromosome A05 harbored three QTL, i.e. qSLA05.1 and qSLA05.2 for SL and qHSWA05.1 for HSW, and the A06B135-A06B113 interval on B06 harbored three QTL as well, i.e. qSWB06.2 and qSWB06.4 for SW and qHSWB06.4 for HSW. These stable and major QTL pave a way for fine mapping of peanut yield-related traits and molecular breeding.

Key words: peanut, genetic mapping, seed size, QTL
