The research area of association mapping (AM) is currently receiving major attention for
genetic studies of quantitative traits in all major crops. However, the level of success and …

Physiological and developmental traits that vary over time are difficult to phenotype under
relevant growing conditions. In this light, we developed a novel system for phenotyping …

Recent advances in plant genomics and molecular biology have revolutionized our
understanding of plant genetics, providing new opportunities for more efficient and …

Unlike a character measured at a finite set of landmark points, function-valued traits are
those that change as a function of some independent and continuous variable. These traits …

Flour and noodle colour influence the value of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and are obvious
targets for breeders seeking to improve quality, end-product range, and marketability of …

A multiple-trait QTL mapping method using least squares is described. It is presented as an
extension of a single-trait method for use with three-generation, outbred pedigrees. The …

Roots are a vital organ for absorbing soil moisture and nutrients and influence drought
resistance. The identification of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) with molecular markers may …

Grain-filling is a crucial process that determines final grain yield in rice (Oryza sativa L.). To
understand the genetic basis of dynamics of grain-filling, quantitative trait locus (QTL) …

Association mapping identified quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and the markers linked to pre-
harvest sprouting (PHS) resistance in an elite association mapping panel of white winter …
