Abstract

Pinus massoniana (masson pine) is the most important native pine in southern China. High-density genetic maps have not been constructed for the species. In this study, a genetic linkage map with 251 markers (47 SSRs, 23 ESTPs and 181 SRAPs) was constructed using a F1 progeny mapping population derived from controlled pollination of two parents of different provenances. At LOD 7.0, a total of 17 linkage groups were constructed with twelve groups having nine or more markers and five other groups of two to four markers each. The total map length was 1,956 cM with an average of 8.4 cM among individual loci. The current linkage map represented 93% of the estimated genome length of 2,114 cM for masson pine. Such linkage map are useful for future genomic studies of masson pine including comparative mapping in Pinaceae and quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping for economically important traits.
