A CAPS marker set for mapping in linkage group III of pea (Pisum sativum L.).

A set of twelve CAPS markers was mapped for linkage group III of pea (Pisum sativum L.). New primers were designed to use a polymerase chain reaction to amplify fragments of sequenced pea genes containing at least one large intron.

Identification of RAPD markers and their use for molecular mapping in pea (Pisum sativum L.).

The RAPD method (Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA) was used for identifying and mapping new molecular markers in pea. RAPD analysis of various cultivars and lines of pea was carried out using 10-mer random primers. The presence of multiple polymorphism between cultivars and lines was revealed; at least one fragment for any given primer was present in the DNA of one form of pea and absent in the DNA of another line or cultivar.
