Book Description
Ten of the 18 homologous and cloned flowering time gene sequences have been mapped. The gene sequences were mapped onto LGs A2 (CRY2), B1 and H (COLI), Al and B2 (PHYA), C1 (DET1 and LD), D2 (AP2), E and K (PHYB), F (COL2), L (FCA), and Q (CCA1). None of these cDNA sequences have been found to be directly associated with previously mapped QTL for flowering time. However, analyses of these candidate genes using NILs show that the FCA homolog was associated with maturity locus E3. The map positions and phenotypic data support that homologous gene sequence FCA is a strong candidate for maturity locus E3. Analyses of NILs suggest that PHYB homolog may be associated with maturity locus El. However, current data show El and PHYB mapped in different LGs.
