Analysis of QTL-allele system conferring drought tolerance at seedling stage in a nested association mapping population of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] using a novel GWAS procedure.

Abstract excerpt

MAIN CONCLUSION: RTM-GWAS identified 111 DT QTLs, 262 alleles with high proportion of QEI and genetic variation accounting for 88.55-95.92% PV in NAM, from which QTL-allele matrices were established and candidate genes annotated. Drought tolerance (DT) is one of the major challenges for world soybean production. A nested association mapping (NAM) population with 403 lines comprising two recombinant inbred line...
