| Abstract | |
The use of molecular markers has contributed to the studies regarding domestication of Phaseolus species, origin and diversity of current common bean cultivars (P. vulgaris), and the genetic control of resistance to several diseases. Linkage maps have been constructed for common bean by using RFLP, RADP, SCAR, isoenzymes and phenotypic markers, some of which were meeting in a more dense and complete map of bean genome, called core map. However, for the effective use of linkage maps in breeding programs they must be sufficiently saturated. This work fits in this context, aiming to saturate the core map of P. vulgaris from the mapping of new molecular markers as AFLP and SSR EST-based. Thus, it was tried to develop and characterize SSR markers from a EST library, to test the transferability of these markers to other cultivars and related species, to generate AFLP markers and integrate them to the consensus map of the species. Also, build a genetic map for a population of interest in Brazil ( \'Carioca\' x \'Flor de Mayo\'), and promoting its alignment with the consensus map, thus complementing the genomic characterization of the species. Pairs of primers were designed for 156 EST-SSR. Of these, 138 EST-SSR amplified clear and reproducible loci and were characterized using a set of 26 genotypes of cultivated beans. Of the loci tested, 85 were polymorphic between the genotypes studied and showed an average 2.96 alleles per locus and a PIC average of 0.38. Among all examined EST-SSR, 50 loci segregated in \'Bat 93\' x \'Jalo EEP558\' mapping population, 20 loci segregated in \'Carioca\' x \'Flor de Mayo\' population and 12 loci were polymorphic in both two populations. AFLP markers were generated and genotyped in the two populations. The 262 microsatellites and AFLP loci genotyped in \'Bat 93\' x \'Jalo EEP558\' population were integrated onto the core map of the species. A map of 1353 cM total length was obtained, containing 357 markers, including 9 genomic-SSR, 47 EST-SSR and 190 AFLP. Moreover, another map was generated from the analysis of segregation of 252 markers in \'Carioca\' x \'Flor de Mayo population. This map was 807.5 cM long, with an average distance of 5.3 cM between markers. The common microsatellites markers were used as a bridge to align and compare the maps of the two studied populations.
