<span style="font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'B Lotus';"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;">Rice is one of the most important cereal with great variation, which is a major food for more than half of the world’s population. Mapping quantitative traits loci is one of the applied and momentous approaches to study yield-related traits. In present study 188 F₄ rice lines derived from CSR28 and Sadri cross along with the parents were used for genotyping and phenotyping. The objective of this study was to construct high saturation linkage map using SNPs markers (Infinium Illumina 6K SNP chip) and QTL identification of yield-related traits in 188 F4 population. Mapping of quantitative traits loci led to identify 21</span></span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-language: FA; mso-bidi-font-size: 14.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: 'B Lotus';">QTLs for studied traits on chromosomes 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8 and 10.
