Résumé : The objective of this study was to apply the QTL mapping by Markers-Assisted Selection approach for early selection on growth and latex yield in rubber breeding. The plant material consisted of 196 progenies derived from the F1 family RRIM 600 x PB 217. A genetic linkage map was built for this family with 229 SSR markers (microsatellites) and 198 AFLP markers. Phenotyping was carried out over a 6 years period on a field trial of 5 hectares, with around 2,400 trees measured individual. The two major QTLs were detected repeatedly. The QTL g16-6 was associated with latex yield near the position of marker a131. This QTL explained up to 66% of the phenotypic variance. It was also associated to other traits that were strongly correlated to production such as inorganic phosphorus and dry rubber content (latex diagnostic), as well as plugging index. This finding indicates the existence of one major gene (or a cluster of genes) located on linkage group g16 and involved in the intensity of metabolic activity of latex cell. A second important QTL associated with girth of the trunk (growth) was detected (QTL g3-60) at the position of marker a312. It explained up to 31% of the phenotypic variance. The discovery of the two major QTLs g3-60 and g16-6 suggest that two major genes act as limiting factors in the genetic determinism of the growth in girth during favorable condition and of rubber production in low-intensive tapping systems. These loci should become privileged targets for the identification of key-genes in rubber. The possible use of their neighboring markers for developing Markers-Assisted Selection (MAS) in the short run appears very reasonable. It should contribute to improve the accuracy of the first selection stage which is the weakest point of the rubber clonal selection scheme.
