Candidate Loci for Yield-Related Traits in Maize Revealed by a Combination of MetaQTL Analysis and Regional Association Mapping
Maize grain yield and related traits are complex and are controlled by a large number of genes of small effect or quantitative trait loci (QTL). Over the years, a large number of yield-related QTLs have been identified in maize and deposited in public databases. However, integrating and re-analyzing...
