Abstract
Linkage maps based on molecular markers are valuable tools in plant breeding and genetic studies. A population of 76 RI lines from the mating of A3733 and PI437.088 was evaluated with Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and Simple Sequence Repeats (SSR) markers to create soybean molecular linkage map. 302 RAPD and 21 SSR markers were genetically linked and formed forty linkage groups. These linkage groups spanned a genetic distance of 1,775 cM. The average distance between markers was 5.5 cM.
