The current study was conducted to identify random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers linked to genes controlling somatic embryogenesis in alfalfa. Segregation analyses of the somatic embryogenesis trait and the RAPD markers in an F1 population of 83 plants, derived from a cross between embryogenic A70-34 and non-embryogenic Arrow36 alfalfa plants, identified a polymorphic band that is associated with somatic embryogenesis. Based on the assumptions that somatic embryogenesis in alfalfa is controlled by two dominant genes with complementary effects and that the genotypes of A70-34 and Arrow36 are AAaaBbbb and aaaabbbb, respectively, the segregation data for the marker and the somatic embryogenesis trait in the F1s indicate that the marker is linked to the A locus. The maximum recombination fraction estimated for the linkage between the marker and the gene is 36.3%.
