Project objectives include mapping and screening using chestnut SNPs and SSRs, establishing the basis for segregation distortion in the AC x CC F2 mapping population, resolving the basis of the missing linkage group in the AC x CC linkage map, and developing marker association genetic screening for BC3 and BC4 progeny.

This part of the project will begin when SNP and SSR marker development is completed. Seeds from previous crosses have been collected, vernalized and planted in greenhouses to create the mapping population in preparation for this phase.
