Genetic basis of heterosis for yield and yield components explored by QTL mapping across four genetic populations in upland cotton

Abstract Background Quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping provides a powerful tool to unravel the genetic bases of cotton yield and its components, as well as their heterosis. In the present study, the genetic basis underlying inbreeding depression and heterosis for yield and yield components of upl...
