QTL Analysis and Fine Mapping of a Major QTL Conferring Kernel Size in Maize (Zea mays)
Kernel size is an important agronomic trait for grain yield in maize. The purpose of this study is to map QTLs and predict candidate genes for kernel size in maize. A total of 199 F2 and its F2:3 lines from the cross between SG5/SG7 were developed. A composite interval mapping (CIM) method was used...
