The multi-environmental trials aid breeders in selecting the best genotypes for specific or general adaptability to different environments before commercial release. This study aimed to assess the stability of 13 new soybean pure lines, along with two controls, in terms of seed yield and important agronomic traits. The assessment was based on a completely randomized block design with three replications across four areas during 2020-2022.

Article Synopsis
  • Four experiments were conducted over the 2015-2017 growing seasons to identify genomic regions influencing various traits in wheat under non-stress and heat stress conditions.
  • The study evaluated 167 recombinant inbred lines for six traits, using a genetic linkage map with various marker types and advanced QTL analysis to uncover additive and epistatic effects.
  • A total of 27 additive and five epistatic QTLs were identified under normal conditions, and 26 additive and five epistatic QTLs under stress, with some showing significant interactions, highlighting potential targets for improving heat tolerance in wheat through marker-assisted selection.

Introduction: Some studies in wheat showed that awns may have a useful effect on yield, especially under drought stress. Up to this time few researches has identified the awn length QTLs with different effect in salinity stress.

Objective: The primary objective of this study was to examine the additive (a) and the epistatic (aa) QTLs involve in wheat awns length in control and saline environments.
