Abstract
Pod length (PL) is one of the major traits determining pod size and yield of peanut. Discovering the quantitative trait loci (QTL) and identifying candidate genes associated with PL are essential for breeding high-yield peanut. In this study, quantitative trait loci sequencing (QTL-seq) was performed using the F2 population constructed by a short-pod variety Tifrunner (Tif) and a long-pod line Lps, and a 0.77 Mb genomic region on chromosome 07 was identified as the candidate region for PL. Then, the candidate region was narrowed to a 265.93 kb region by traditional QTL approach. RNA-seq analysis showed that there were four differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the candidate region, among which Arahy.PF2L6F (AhCDC48) and Arahy.P4LK2T (AhTAA1) were speculated to be PL-related candidate genes. These results were informative for the elucidation of the underlying regulatory mechanism in peanut pod length and would facilitate further identification of valuable target genes.
