Abstract
Jatropha curcas is a new promising bioenergy crop due to the high oil content in its seeds that can be converted into biodiesel Seed size a major determinant of Jatropha oil yield is a target trait for Jatropha breeding Due to the vital roles of phytohormone auxin in controlling seed and fruit development we screened key genes in auxin pathway including ARF and IAA families and downstream effectors to identify candidate genes controlling seed size in Jatropha As a result JcARF19 was mapped in the major quantitative trait locus QTL region and significantly associated with seed length By using expression QTL eQTL analysis to link variants with functional candidate genes we provided evidences that seed traits were affected by the interaction of JcARF19 and JcIAA9 ARF19 and IAA9 involved in auxin signal transduction were conserved in higher plants These data including the singlenucleotide polymorphisms SNPs in the two genes could lead to utilization of the genes by integrating favored alleles into elite varieties through markerassisted selection
