This study was conducted for molecular mapping of genes/quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling flowering time in chickpea using F2 populations derived from four crosses (ICCV 96029 × CDC Frontier, ICC 5810 × CDC Frontier, BGD 132 × CDC Frontier and ICC 16641 × CDC Frontier). Genetic studies revealed monogenic control of flowering time in the crosses ICCV 96029 × CDC Frontier, BGD 132 × CDC Frontier and ICC 16641 × CDC Frontier, while digenic control with complementary gene action in ICC 5810 × CDC Frontier. The intraspecific genetic maps developed from these crosses consisted 75, 75, 68 and 67 markers spanning 248.8 cM, 331.4 cM, 311.1 cM and 385.1 cM, respectively. A consensus map spanning 363.8 cM with 109 loci was constructed by integrating four genetic maps. Major QTLs corresponding to flowering time genes efl-1 from ICCV 96029, efl-3 from BGD 132 and efl-4 from ICC 16641 were mapped on CaLG04, CaLG08 and CaLG06, respectively. The QTLs and linked markers identified in this study can be used in marker-assisted breeding for developing early maturing chickpea. date: 2017-07 date_type: published publication: Frontiers in Plant Science volume: 8 number: 1140 publisher: Frontiers Media pagerange: 1-10 id_number: 10.3389/fpls.2017.01140 refereed: TRUE issn: 1664-462X official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.3389/fpls.2017.01140 related_url_url: https://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?q=Molecular+Mapping+of+Flowering+Time+Major+Genes+and+QTLs+in+Chickpea+%28Cicer+arietinum+L.%29&btnG=&hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5 related_url_type: pub citation: Mallikarjuna, B P and Samineni, S and Thudi, M and Sajja, S and Khan, A W and Patil, A and Viswanatha, K P and Varshney, R K and Gaur, P M (2017) Molecular Mapping of Flowering Time Major Genes and QTLs in Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.).
