Identification of SSR markers through bulk segregant analysis and inheritance of resistance to yellow vein mosaic disease in okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench).

ABSTRACT: Okra is an important traditional vegetable crop grown for its tender fruits in various tropical and sub tropical parts of the world. Yellow Vein Mosaic Disease (YVMD) is the major biotic factor causing severe threat to the okra fruit yield and qualities. The present study was conducted to find out the inheritance of resistance against YVMD and to identify the disease linked molecular markers through bulk segregant analysis. For this, the F₁, BC₁F₁ and BC₁F₂ generations were derived from a cross between Abelmoschus manihot (PAUAcc-1) as resistant male parent and A. esculentus cv. Punjab Padmini as susceptible female parent. The whole set of populations (F₁, BC₁F₁ and BC₁F_2</
