Genetic dissection of tocopherol content and composition in maize grain using quantitative trait loci analysis and the candidate gene approach

2008-10-01

Abstract excerpt

Tocopherols are essential micronutrients for humans and animals, with several beneficial effects in plants. Among cereals, only maize grains contain high concentrations of tocopherols. In this investigation we analyzed, during 2004 and 2005, by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), a population of 233 recombinant inbred lines (RIL) which were derived from two diverse parents and had extremely variable toc...
