Th is research was carried out to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling yield and yield components in rice using 196 F2:4 lines derived from a cross between two rice varieties of indica, Sepidrood and Gharib. Quantitative trait loci analysis using composite interval mapping was carried out by 105 SSR and 111 AFLP markers. Results showed that 8 chromosomes contain 28 regions (QTLs)...

QTL underlying related traits at the late developmental stage under two different nitrogen levels were investigated in rice using a population of chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSL) derived from a cross between Teqing and Lemont. A total of 31 QTLs referring 5 traits, that is, plant height (PH), panicle number per plant (PN), chlorophyll content (CC), shoot dry weight (SDW) and grain y...

salt tolerance in crops is multigenic in nature and quantitatively inherited, and therefore controlled by minorgenes. to study the diversity of qtls conferring salt tolerance in barley, four barley mapping populations including l94 × vada (l × v, 103 rils), oregon wolf barley (owb) (dom × rec, 94 dhs), susptrit × vada (su × v, 152 lines), and susptrit × cebada capa (su × cc, 113 lines) were tes...

despite the importance of forage quality to animal performance, the quality of barley as a feed and forage crop has not been taken into consideration as a selection criterion in its breeding programs. in order to map the genomic regions affecting barley forage quality, two experiments were conducted while employing 72 doubled haploid lines and their two parents (‘steptoe’ and ‘morex’), at the r...

Many traits play essential roles in determining crop yield. Wide variation for morphological traits exists in Hordeum vulgare L., but the genetic basis of this morphological variation is largely unknown. To understand genetic basis controlling morphological traits affecting yield, a barley doubled haploid population (146 individuals) derived from Clipper × Sahara 3771 was used to map chromosome...

In bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), crop height is an important determinant of agronomic performance. To map QTLs with additive effects and additive×additive epistatic interactions, 148 recombinant inbred lines and their parents, (‘YecoraRojo’ and Iranian landrace (No. #49)) were evaluated under normal and water deficit conditions. The experiments were carried out on research farms of Mahaba...

in order to evaluate the genetic diversity and identify quantitative trait loci(qtl) controlling agro-morphological triats such as leaf length, leaf width, leaf number, internode distance, dried leaf yield per plot, plant height and stem girth, the genetic population including 225 f 2:3 families from the cross between two oriental-type tobacco genotypes ‘spt 406 (paternal) × basma seres 31 (mat...

in order to map qtls controlling phonological traits of barley under normal and drought stress conditions, an experiment was conducted by 72 doubled-haploid lines and their two parents (steptoe and morex), at the research farm, college of agriculture, university of zabol, in 2011. the experiment was arranged in completely randomized block designs with three replications under normal irrigation ...
