Detailed knowledge on genetic behavior and association between economic traits will help breeders to improve plant populations. In this study, 12 retrotransposons-based primers (7 IRAP and 5 REMAP primers) and general and mixed linear models (GLM and MLM) were used to identify molecular markers associated to 9 seed related important traits including oil yield, oil percentage, protein yield, protein percentage, grain length, grain diameter, grain weight, dehulled kernel weight, percentage of dehulled kernel weight to whole grain in 48 confectionery sunflower landraces under normal irrigation, mild and severe drought stress conditions. By applying Bayesian model, the whole confectionery sunflower populations were classified into two sub-populations. Based on general linear model, 2, 5 and 12 loci and through mixed linear model 2, 5 and 11 loci showed significant (P Since the economic value of cultivars depends on different characteristics, thus procedure of selection for several traits to maximizing the economic value always has been considered by plant breeders.
