Screening of f2 population in safflower for higher fatty acid content


Author(s): Shampa Purkaystha, Rajeev Srivastava and S Mondal

Abstract: The Present study was carried out at Research cum Instructional Farm, Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur (M.P.) during rabi of 2015-16. The present study is based on a cross between GMU 244 x GMU 1303 and its F2 progeny study based on the segregation pattern of fatty acids and study of transgressive segregation. Over other allogamous oilseed crops, such as sunflower and rapeseed, safflower is characterized by high degree self-pollination which has greater advantage for commercial production of high oleic acid. It is a type of oilseed crop which consists of various composition of different fatty acids and this can be controlled by combination of various major genes and some changes in environment condition. The association of markers with traits of study is estimated by their positive average additive effect with different traits. In present study SSR marker SES 33 was found to be linked with number of seeds per capitulam and seed yield per plant. Similarly, SSR marker SF 18 was observed to be linked with plant height, number of branches per plant, number of capitulam per plant, seed yield per plant and oil %. SSR marker SES144 was found to be associated with yield contributing traits like plant height, number of capitulum per plant and oil %. SSR marker SES 99 was found to be associated with traits, plant height, and number of seeds per capitulam, seed yield per plant and oil %. In this study SSR marker SES 86 was observed to be linked with number of branches per plant and oil %. Marker SES 85 was found to be linked with number of branches per plant, oil %, number of seeds per capitulam and seed yield per plant. The SSR marker SES 81 was found to be linked with plant height.
