Mapping and characterization of novel parthenocarpy QTLs in tomato [PDF]

, 2008
Parthenocarpy is the development of the fruit in absence of pollination and/or fertilization. In tomato, parthenocarpy is considered as an attractive trait to solve the problems of fruit setting under unfavorable conditions.

Genetic mapping of natural variation in potassium concentrations in shoots of Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

, 2006
Naturally-occurring variation in K+ concentrations between plant genotypes is potentially exploitable in a number of ways, including altering the relationship between K+ accumulation and growth, enhancing salinity resistance, or improving forage quality.

Molecular markers: their use in tree improvement

Journal 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]

PLoS 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

Efficient QTL detection for nonhost resistance in wild lettuce: backcross inbred lines versus F2 [PDF]

, 2008
In plants, several population types [F2, recombinant inbred lines, backcross inbred lines (BILs), etc.] are used for quantitative trait locus (QTL) analyses.

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

Czech 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.

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

Photosynthetica, 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 ...

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

Frontiers 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
