Identification of quantitative trait loci associated with flowering time in perilla using genotyping-by-sequencing.

Understanding the transition to the reproductive period is important for crop breeding. This information can facilitate the production of novel varieties that are better adapted to local environments or changing climatic conditions. Here, we report the development of a high-density linkage map based on genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) for the genus perilla.

Fine mapping and candidate gene analysis of the quantitative trait locus gw8.1 associated with grain length in rice.

A quantitative trait locus (QTL) gw8.1 was detected in the population derived from a cross between the elite japonica cultivar, 'Hwaseong' and Oryza rufipogon (IRGC 105491). Near isogenic lines (NILs) harboring the O.
