Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: A major QTL for heading date, qHD5, was fine-mapped to a 52.59-kb region on the short arm of rice chromosome 5. Heading date (HD) is one of the most important traits that enables rice to adapt to seasonal differences and specific growth conditions in diverse growing regions. In this study, a major-effect quantitative trait locus (QTL), qHD5, was resolved as a single Medelian factor that causes...
