We undertook an assessment of LD in sugarcane (Saccharum spp), characterized by one of the most complex crop genomes, with its high ploidy level (>= 8) and chromosome number (> 100) as well as its interspecific origin. Using AFLP markers, we surveyed 1,537 polymorphisms among 72 modern sugarcane cultivars. We exploited information from available genetic maps to determine a relevant statistical threshold that discriminates marker associations due to linkage from other associations. LD is very common among closely linked markers and steadily decreases within a 0-30 cM window. Many instances of linked markers cannot be recognized due to the confounding effect of polyploidy. However, LD within a sample of cultivars appears as efficient as linkage analysis within a controlled progeny in terms of assigning markers to cosegregation groups. Saturating the genome coverage remains a challenge, but applying LD-based mapping within breeding programs will considerably speed up the localization of genes controlling important traits by making use of phenotypic information produced in the course of selection
