Genetic Mapping of Quantitative Trait Loci for End-Use Quality and Grain Minerals in Hard Red Winter Wheat

To meet the demands of different wheat-based food products, traits related to end-use quality become indispensable components in wheat improvement. Thus, markers associated with these are valuable for timely evaluation protein content, kernel physical characteristics, and rheological properties. Hereunder, we report mapping results quantitative trait loci (QTLs) linked traits. We used a dense genetic map 5199 SNPs from 90K array based on recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived ‘CO960293-2’/‘TAM 111’. The was evaluated flour concentration, dough properties, grain mineral concentrations. An inclusive composite interval model individual across-environment QTL analyses revealed 22 consistent QTLs identified two or more environments. Chromosomes 1A, 1B, 1D had clustered parameters. Glu-D1 CO960293-2 either low-molecular-weight glutenin subunits gliadin influenced mixing properties substantially, up 34.2% total phenotypic variation explained (PVE). A five Cd, Co, Mo concentrations were 3B, 5A, 7B, explaining 11.6% PVE. provide important resources towards understanding bases Information about novel provided solid foundations further characterization marker designing assist selections improvements.
