Germplasm Architecture Revealed through Chromosomal Effects for Quantitative Traits in Maize.
The plant genome - 1 Jul 2016
Bernardo Rex, Thompson Addie M
Abstract excerpt
Germplasm architecture refers to how favorable alleles for a given trait are distributed across the genome in a germplasm collection. Our objective was to assess germplasm architecture for quantitative traits among US maize ( L.) inbreds. A total of 271 inbreds were genotyped at 28,626 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) loci and phenotyped for anthesis date, plant height, starch and protein concentration, and...
