Summary of RFLP, SSR and AFLP analysis of the interspecific hybrid mapping population

Type of markers	No. of probes/primer pairs evaluated	No. of informative probes/primer pairs	No. of polymorphic loci identified	No. of markers showing 3:1 segregation	No. of markers showing 1:1 segregation in the gametes of		No. of markers meeting goodness-of-fit to 1:1, 1:1:1:1 or 3:1 ratio
					T128	UP1026
AFLP	67	67	413	8	360	45	323
RFLP	289	71	76*	-	71	5	63
SSR	56	19	23**	-	22#	1	18
Total			512	8	453	51	404

* Five RFLP markers detected two loci each

** Four SSR primers detected two loci each

^# Three of the SSR markers showing 1:1:1:1 segregation ratio (type f and g, Table 2) were grouped here for simplicity of presentation
