Chromosomal anchoring of linkage groups and identification of wing size QTL using markers and FISH probes derived from microdissected chromosomes in Nasonia(Pteromalidae : Hymenoptera) [PDF]
Nasonia vitripennis is a small parasitic hymenopteran with a 50-year history of genetic work including linkage mapping with mutant and molecular markers. For the first time we are now able to anchor linkage groups to specific chromosomes.

Linkage mapping and GWAS reveal candidate genes conferring thermotolerance of seed-set in maize.
High temperature stress (HS) will increasingly affect crop yield worldwide. In order to determine the genetic basis of thermotolerance of seed-set in maize in field conditions, a QTL mapping in a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population was performed ...
