Localization of quantitative trait loci for cucumber fruit shape by a population of chromosome segment substitution lines

Identification of quantitative trait loci for rice quality in a population of chromosome segment substitution lines.

The demand for high quality rice represents a major issue in rice production. The primary components of rice grain quality include appearance, eating, cooking, physico-chemical, milling and nutritional qualities. Most of these traits are complex and controlled by quantitative trait loci (QTLs), so the genetic characterization of these traits is more difficult than that of traits controlled by a...

Title: Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci for Rice Quality in a Population of Chromosome Segment Substitution Lines

Quantitative trait loci mapping for kernel row number using chromosome segment substitution lines in maize.

Unveiling the genetic architecture of grain yield and yield-related traits is useful for guiding the genetic improvement of crop plants. Kernel row number (KRN) per ear is an important yield component, which directly affects the grain yield of maize. In this study, we constructed a set of 130 chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs), using Nongxi531 as the donor parent and H21 as recipient...

Quantitative Trait Loci for some of Behavior and Performance Traits on Chromosome 4 of Japanese Quail

The current study was conducted to identify the quantitative trait locus (QTL) for the body weight at age 1, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days and daily gain at age 0-1, 1-2, 2-3 and 3-4 weeks, slighter carcass weight and tonic immobility in Japanese quail. Two divergently lines of wild and white Japanese quail which maintained in the Animal Science Research Center of the Shahid Bahonar University of Kerma...

Mapping quantitative trait loci for heat tolerance at anthesis in rice using chromosomal segment substitution lines

To study the genetic basis of heat tolerance at anthesis, a set of chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs) derived from Sasanishiki (japonica ssp. heat susceptible) and Habataki (indica spp. heat tolerant) were used for analysis across three high temperature environments. Spikelet fertility (SF), daily flowering time (DFT) and pollen shedding level (PSL) under high temperature (HT) were a...
