QTLs for seven different quality traits were mapped. Six QTLs were considered stable and major QTLs, and the genetic effects of the QTLs were validated. Wheat grain quality traits are the key factors for economic value and are largely influenced by genetics and the environment.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA recombinant inbred line population including 371 lines was developed by a high kernel number per spike (KNPS) genotype T1208 and a low KNPS genotype Chuannong18 (CN18). A genetic linkage map consisting of 11,583 markers was constructed by the Wheat55K SNP Array. The quantitative trait loci (QTLs) related to KNPS were detected in three years.
