Capsanthin, the main carotenoid of red pepper fruits, is beneficial for human health. To breed pepper (<i>Capsicum annuum</i> L.) with high capsanthin content by marker-assisted selection, we constructed a linkage map of doubled-haploid (DH) lines derived from a cross of two pure lines of <i>C. annuum</i> ('S3586' × 'Kyoto-Manganji No. 2'). The map, designated as the SM-DH map, consisted of 15 linkage groups and the total map distance was 1403.8 cM. Mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for ...[more]
