Abstract excerpt
Flowering is an important developmental event in switchgrass (), as the time to complete the life cycle affects overall biomass accumulation. The objective of this study was to generate a linkage map using single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with flowering time. A pseudo-F population was created by crossing two siblings derived from an initial cross...
