What should students in plant breeding know about the statistical aspects of genotype× environment interactions?
A good statistical analysis of genotype× environment interactions (G× E) is a key
requirement for progress in any breeding program. Data for G× E analyses traditionally …

Identification and characterization of large-effect quantitative trait loci for grain yield under lowland drought stress in rice using bulk-segregant analysis
Abstract An F 4: 5 population of 490 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) from the cross Apo/2*
Swarna was used to detect quantitative trait loci (QTL) with large effects on grain yield under …

QTL for nodal root angle in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) co-locate with QTL for traits associated with drought adaptation
Nodal root angle in sorghum influences vertical and horizontal root distribution in the soil
profile and is thus relevant to drought adaptation. In this study, we report for the first time on …

QTL map** of terminal heat tolerance in hexaploid wheat (T. aestivum L.)
Abstract High temperature (> 30° C) at the time of grain filling is one of the major causes of
yield reduction in wheat in many parts of the world, especially in tropical countries. To …

Dissecting genomic hotspots underlying seed protein, oil, and sucrose content in an interspecific map** population of soybean using high‐density linkage map**
The cultivated [Glycine max (L) Merr.] and wild [Glycine soja Siebold & Zucc.] soybean
species comprise wide variation in seed composition traits. Compared to wild soybean …

QTL map** and confirmation for tolerance of anaerobic conditions during germination derived from the rice landrace Ma-Zhan Red
Wide adoption of direct-seeded rice practices has been hindered by poorly leveled fields,
heavy rainfall and poor drainage, which cause accumulation of water in the fields shortly …
