Fine Mapping and Candidate Gene Prediction of a Pleiotropic Quantitative Trait Locus for Yield-Related Trait in Zea mays
Figure 1
Distribution of the introgressed segments and phenotype of SL57.
1a: Distribution of the introgressed segments on maize chromosome 4 and 6 in SL57. The introgressed segments were identified by SSR screening. The white box represents the chromosome with the same genotype as Ye478, and the black box represents the introgressed segment. The genetic similarity between Ye478 and SL57 is 97.6%. 1b: The kernel number per row of SL57 and Ye478 under four environments. The white bar represents Ye478, and the black bar represents SL57. The horizontal axis shows four environments: Baoding in 2008 (2008BD), Baoding in 2009 (2009BD), Baoding in 2010 (2010BD) and Baoding in 2011 (2011BD). The vertical-axis shows the kernel number per row. N: The number of samples. 1c: The ear length, ear weight and grain weight of SL57 and Ye478 detected in 2010 at Baoding (northern China).
