Nematode-resistance gene Mi linked to the Aps marker

Mapping of the Mi gene

Long Description: Mapping of the Mi gene on the genetic map of tomato demonstrated a tight linkage between Mi and the Aps-1 marker gene. Mapping of Mi on the physical map of tomato demonstrated eventighter linkages between Mi and many molecular markers.

Linkage of the Mi gene to the Aps marker gene provided a quick easy assay.

Almost every progeny plant that contained the Aps marker also contained the Mi gene.
