    Notes: Abstract  A molecular linkage map of Rhododendron has been constructed by using a segregating population from an interspecific cross. Parent-specific maps based on 239 RAPD, 38 RFLP, and two microsatellite markers were aligned using markers heterozygous in both parents. The map of the male parent ‘Cunningham’s White’ comprised 182 DNA markers in 13 linkage groups corresponding to the basic chromosome number. In the female parent ‘Rh 16’ 168 markers were located on 18 linkage groups. An assignment of putative homologous linkage groups was possible for 11 groups of each parent. QTL analyses based on the non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis rank-sum test were performed for the characters “leaf chlorosis” and “flower colour” scored as quantitative traits. For leaf chlorosis, two genomic regions bearing QTLs with significant effects on the trait were identified on two linkage groups of the chlorosis-tolerant parent. RAPD marker analysis of additional lime-stressed genotypes tested under altered environmental conditions verified the relationship between marker allele frequencies and the expression of chlorosis. Highly significant QTL effects for flower colour were found on two chromosomes indicating major genes located in these genome areas. The prospects for utilization of a linkage map in Rhododendron are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract  Sd 1 is a dominant gene for resistance to biotypes 1 and 2 of the rosy leaf curling aphid, Dysaphis devecta Wlk., which can cause economic damage to apple trees. This report describes the identification of three RFLP and four RAPD markers linked to Sd 1 in a cross between the D. devecta susceptible variety ‘Prima’ (sd 1 sd 1) and the resistant variety ‘Fiesta’ (Sd 1 sd 1). Potted trees were artificially infested in the glasshouse, and the ratio of resistant:susceptible plants supported the hypothesis that the resistance was under the control of a single dominant gene. The position of the gene was mapped to a single locus on a ‘Fiesta’ chromosome, within 2 cM of three tightly linked RFLP markers (MC064a, 2B12a and MC029b); the four RAPD markers were located further away (between 13 and 46 cM). This is the first report of molecular markers for an aphid resistance gene in tree fruit crops. The potential application of these markers in a marker-assisted resistance breeding programme is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract  Linkage maps for the apple cultivars ‘Prima’ and ‘Fiesta’ were constructed using RFLP, RAPD, isozyme, AFLP, SCAR and microsatellite markers in a ‘Prima’בFiesta’ progeny of 152 individuals. Seventeen linkage groups, putatively corresponding to the seventeen haploid apple chromosomes, were obtained for each parent. These maps were aligned using 67 multi-allelic markers that were heterozygous in both parents. A large number of duplicate RFLP loci was observed and, in several instances, linked RFLP markers in one linkage group showed corresponding linkage in another linkage group. Distorted segregation was observed mainly in two regions of the genome, especially in the male parent alleles. Map positions were provided for resistance genes to scab and rosy leaf curling aphid (Vf and Sd 1, respectively) for the fruit acidity gene Ma and for the self-incompatibility locus S. The high marker density and large number of mapped codominant RFLPs and some microsatellite markers make this map an ideal reference map for use in other progenies also and a valuable tool for the mapping of quantitative trait loci.
