Staub Vegetable Crops Research, USDA/ARS, Department of Horticulture, University of Wisconsin-Madison, WI 53706 Introduction. Our laboratory has been interested in using random amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs) as a tool for marker-assisted selection (MAS) in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.). Phenotype selection based on traits […]

Environment can Affect the Placement of Discrete Traits on Genetic Maps: The Case of Sex Expression in Cucumber
Cucurbit Genetics Cooperative Report 19:10-12 (article 4) 1996 F.C. Serquen and J.E. Staub Vegetable Crops Research, USDA/ARS, Department of Horticulture, University of Wisconsin-Madison, WI 53706 U.S.A. Introduction. Several genetic maps have been constructed in cucumber using morphological and biochemical markers (3,4). These maps have incorporated discrete, qualitative loci which have lead to a better understanding […]
