Fig. 2. Linkage map of Linkage Group A1 and likelihood plot of a major gene conditioning the reduced palmitic acid content in soybean. The arrow indicates the LOD score at Satt684. The QTL conditioning palmitic acid content is most likely distal to Satt684. (*Satt684 is a proprietary SSR marker of the Monsanto Company. Monsanto Company will place the primer sequences for this marker in public domain in December 2001).
