Background Rice is highly sensitive to temperature fluctuations. Recently, the frequent occurrence of high temperature stress has heavily influenced rice production. Proper heading date in specific environmental conditions could ensure high grain yield. Rice heading greatly depends on the accurate measurement of environmental changes, particularly in day length and temperature. In contrary to the...
Background Most agronomical traits of crop species are complex traits controlled by multiple genes and affected by environmental factors. While considerable efforts have been made to fine-map and clone major quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for yield-related traits in rice, it is not until recently that the attention has been paid to minor QTLs. Following previous dissection of QTLs for grain weight...
Dissection of qTGW1.2 , a minor quantitative trait locus (QTL) for 1,000-grain weight located on the long arm of rice chromosome 1, was reported here. Six sets of near isogenic lines (NILs) were developed from six BC 2 F 9 plants of the indica rice cross Zhenshan 97 3 /Milyang 46, respectively, segregated in a sequential order covering...
