Abstract excerpt
Two quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for seed dormancy (tentatively designated Sdr1) and heading date ( Hd8) have been mapped to approximately the same region on chromosome 3 by interval mapping of backcross inbred lines derived from crosses between the rice cultivars Nipponbare (japonica) and Kasalath (indica). To clarify whether Sdr1 and Hd8 could be dissected genetically, we carried out fine-scale mapping with...
