devastating disease of chickpea world-wide. Resistant&#13;
germplasm has been identified and an F2 mapping population&#13;
of chickpea cultivars with contrasting disease reactions to&#13;
Ascochyta rabiei L. was used to identify the markers linked to&#13;
the disease using STMS and ICCM markers. STMS markers&#13;
showed 40% polymorphism between the parents. Bulked&#13;
segregant analysis (BSA) was performed to identify markers&#13;
linked to the AB resistance gene. Of the 252 markers, only 10 were found to be possibly linked. MAPMAKER version 3.0&#13;
gave the linkage map of LG5 region of the chickpea genome&#13;
spanning a length of 275.2 cM. The AB resistance gene was&#13;
present on LG5 flanked by the markers TA 42 and TR 35, with&#13;
a distance of 45.0 cM and 38.6 cM, respectively. It was concluded that there was synteny in the linkage groups 1, 3, 5 and 7.</mods:abstract><mods:classification authority="lcc">Chickpea</mods:classification><mods:originInfo><mods:dateIssued encoding="iso8061">2011</mods:dateIssued></mods:originInfo><mods:genre>Article</mods:genre></mods:mods>
