Towards an integrated linkage map of common bean 2. Development of an RFLP-based linkage map

TLDR
The I gene for bean common mosaic virus resistance is the first disease resistance gene to be located on the common bean genetic linkage map.
Abstract
A restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP)-based linkage map for common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) covering 827 centiMorgans (cM) was developed based on a F2 mapping population derived from a cross between BAT93 and Jalo EEP558. The parental genotypes were chosen because they exhibited differences in evolutionary origin, allozymes, phaseolin type, and for several agronomic traits. The segregation of 152 markers was analyzed, including 115 RFLP loci, 7 isozyme loci, 8 random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) marker loci, and 19 loci corresponding to 15 clones of known genes, 1 virus resistance gene, 1 flower color gene, and 1 seed color pattern gene. Using MAPMAKER and LINKAGE-1, we were able to assign 143 markers to 15 linkage groups, whereas 9 markers remained unassigned. The average interval between markers was 6.5 cM; only one interval was larger than 30 cM. A small fraction (9%) of the markers deviated significantly from the expected Mendelian ratios (1∶2∶1 or 3∶1) and mapped into four clusters. Probes of known genes belonged to three categories: seed proteins, pathogen response genes, and Rhizobium response genes. Within each category, sequences homologous to the various probes were unlinked. The I gene for bean common mosaic virus resistance is the first disease resistance gene to be located on the common bean genetic linkage map.

Plant Lectins: A Composite of Several Distinct Families of Structurally and Evolutionary Related Proteins with Diverse Biological Roles

TL;DR: Four major lectin families, namely, the legume lectins, the chitin-binding lectins composed of hevein domains, the type 2 ribosome-inactivating proteins, and the monocot mannose- binding lectins comprise the majority of all currently known plant lectins.

Chromosomal regions associated with segregation distortion of molecular markers in F2 , backcross, doubled haploid, and recombinant inbred populations in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

TL;DR: Ch Chromosomal regions associated with marker segregation distortion in rice were compared based on six molecular linkage maps, suggesting that loci in these regions may be associated with preferential regeneration of japonica genotypes during anther culture.

TL;DR: A technique for conveniently radiolabeling DNA restriction endonuclease fragments to high specific activity is described, and these "oligolabeled" DNA fragments serve as efficient probes in filter hybridization experiments.

A technique for radiolabeling DNA restriction endonuclease fragments to high specific activity

TL;DR: In this article, a technique for conveniently radiolabeling DNA restriction endonuclease fragments to high specific activity is described, where DNA fragments are purified from agarose gels directly by ethanol precipitation and are then denatured and labeled with the large fragment of DNA polymerase I, using random oligonucleotides as primers.
