Abstract: | Quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with six physical traits of cooked rice and seven chemical properties of rice grain
were identified using a recombinant inbred (RI) population of rice evaluated over 3 years at the National Honam Agricultural
Research Institute in Korea. The RI population consisted of 164 lines derived from a cross between Milyang23 and Gihobyeo,
and the genetic map consisted of 414 molecular markers. A total of 49 QTL were identified for the 13 physico-chemical properties
using composite interval mapping. Of these, 13 QTL were identified for 2 or more years, while 36 were detected in only 1 year.
Five QTL were identified over all 3 years and will be useful for marker-assisted improvement of rice grain quality in Korea.
The two QTL with the highest LOD scores, adhesiveness1.2 and potassium content7.1, provide a valuable starting point for positional cloning of genes underlying these QTL. |
