QTL analysis of Na+ and K+ concentrations in roots and shoots under different levels of NaCl stress in rice (Oryza sativa L.). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The key to plant survival under NaCl salt stress is maintaining a low Na(+) level or Na(+)/K(+) ratio in the cells. A population of recombinant inbred lines (RILs, F(2:9)) derived from a cross between the salt-tolerant japonica rice variety Jiucaiqing ...

A chromosome-wide QTL mapping on chromosome 2 to identify loci affecting live weight and carcass traits in F2 population of Japanese quail

open access: yesCzech Journal of Animal Science, 2016
The Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica) is a considerable species which is often used for animal modelling in breeding researches. This study aims to detect quantitative trait loci (QTL) underlying growth and carcass traits in Japanese quail.

Molecular markers: their use in tree improvement

open access: yesJournal of Forest Science, 2012
Earlier breeders used phenotypic selection based on morphological characteristics to improve tree varieties. These selections often take many cycles of breeding and backcrossing in order to place desired characteristics. But today the knowledge has paved

Linkages and Interactions Analysis of Major Effect Drought Grain Yield QTLs in Rice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Quantitative trait loci conferring high grain yield under drought in rice are important genomic resources for climate resilient breeding. Major and consistent drought grain yield QTLs usually co-locate with flowering and/or plant height QTLs, which could

Special issue in honour of Prof. Reto J. Strasser - Additive main effect and digenic epistatic quantitative trait loci for chlorophyll fluorescence traits influencing salt tolerance at seedling stage in rice

open access: yesPhotosynthetica, 2020
In this investigation, an attempt was made to identify quantitative trait locus (QTL)/gene associated with JIP-test parameters in rice. Thirty main effect additive QTLs (M-QTLs) along with more than 500 digenic epistatic QTLs were detected using a ...

QTL Mining and Validation of Grain Nutritional Quality Characters in Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Using Two Introgression Line Populations

open access: yesAgriculture, 2023
Nutritional grain quality is mainly influenced by the protein fraction content and grain protein content. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) mining for five traits, about 245 and 284 BC3F3 individual families of two introgression line (IL) populations were ...

QTL mapping of physiological traits at the booting stage in rice under low temperature combined with nitrogen fertilization

open access: yesCzech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2019
Further dissection of physiological molecular mechanisms is indispensable to alleviate rice yield losses resulting from cold injury. By using 105 near-isogenic lines (NILs) derived from a backcross between cv. Lijiangxintuanheigu (LTH) and cv. Towada, we

Univariate and Multivariate QTL Analyses Reveal Covariance Among Mineral Elements in the Rice Ionome

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Rice provides more than one fifth of daily calories for half of the world’s human population, and is a major dietary source of both essential mineral nutrients and toxic elements. Rice grains are generally poor in some essential nutrients but may contain

Detection of QTLs for important agronomical traits in hexaploid wheat using association analysis

open access: yesCzech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2013
One of the main wheat breeder's goals is determining specific genomic regions which control important agronomical traits. Association analysis is a new strategy with high resolution in plant molecular breeding that could be used to improve the efficiency
