Marker Assisted Selection in Groundnuts

Diriba Beyene Goonde*

Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is an important oilseed crop worldwide. Objective of this review is to highlight molecular breeding approach such as marker assisted selection on groundnut improvement with future perspectives. The review analyzed application of marker assisted selection including simple sequence repeats, random amplified polymorphism DNAs, single nucleotide polymorphism, amplified fragment length polymorphism and inter simple sequence repeats on groundnut improvement. Among the molecular markers, random amplified polymorphic DNA is a rapid method for developing genetic maps and to determine DNA fragments to characterize peanut cultivars. DArTseq is used for SNP discovery and genotyping, which enables considerable discovery of SNPs in a wide variety of non-model organisms and provides measures of genetic divergence. Polymorphism screening performed using these newly developed SSRs will greatly increase the density of SSR markers in the peanut genetic map in the future.
