TL;DR: To detect more maize flowering time variants, an extremely large multi- genetic background population that contained more than 8000 lines under multiple Sino-United States environments was evaluated and nearly 1 million single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were used in the analyses.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated approximately 5000 inbred lines from 30 linkage-association joint mapping populations under two contrasting water regimes for seven drought-related traits, including yield and anthesis-silking interval (ASI).

TL;DR: In this article, the results of linkage analysis and association mapping revealed that GRMZM2G039934 is the most likely candidate gene for qGW4.05.
Fine mapping of qKW7 , a major QTL for kernel weight and kernel width in maize, confirmed by the combined analytic approaches of linkage and association analysis
Xin Li,Yongxiang Li,Lin Chen,Xun Wu,Weiwei Qin,Yanchun Song,Dengfeng Zhang,Tianyu Wang,Yu Li,Yunsu Shi +9 more
TL;DR: Results indicated that three KWEI- and KWID-related quantitative trait nucleotides (QTNs) were tightly linked to qKW7, and sequence analysis revealed that all three detected QTNs were located within the gene region of GRMZM2G114706, which encodes an ankyrin protein kinase that regulates endosperm development.
