Abstract excerpt
Fine-tuning heading date is critical for optimizing yield, grain quality, and local adaptation in rice (Oryza sativa L.). QTL-seq (where QTL is quantitative trait locus), which integrates bulked segregant analysis with whole-genome resequencing, provides a rapid and cost-effective approach for identifying QTLs underlying complex traits. Shinpyeong and Haedeul are elite Korean rice cultivars that carry identical...
