Abstract excerpt
In plant breeding with intensive selection, the haplotype patterns in the targeted chromosomal regions may become monogenic among local populations with the most desirable combination of loci. This study demonstrated that the chromosomal region surrounding qLTG3-1 was under selection during rice breeding programs in a local region of Japan, Hokkaido. qLTG3-1 is a major quantitative trait loci controlling...
