Abstract excerpt
A DH population containing 81 DH lines from an indica-japonica cross of rice and an RFLP linkage map consisting of 232 markers were used to map quantitative trait loci(QTLs) for harvest index, biomass, grain yield, sink capacity and plant height by a computer program QTLMapper1.0 based on mixed linear models. A total of 21 significant main-effect QTLs and 9 pairs of epistatic loci were detected. Of these, three...
