Mapping of QTLs associated with adaptation to mega-environments using Canadian x Chinese populations in soybean [PDF]
Soybean ('Glycine max' [L.] Men) breeding programs frequently use elite lines as parents in crosses. The use of exotic germplasm as source of parents has been avoided due to a limited success of developing superior lines from the progeny. The reasons for
