Genetic mapping of Cuphea lanceolata : molecular-marker linkage to quantitative-trait loci affecting seed capric acid, seed oil, and embryo development

Cuphea is an herbaceous genus having species whose seed storage lipids are predominantly medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs). Cuphea lanceolate Ait, and Cuphea viscosissima Jacq. are central to the breeding of Cuphea as a new commercial source of MCTs. The objectives of this thesis were to develop a r...
