53716 in a bewildering array of new terms. For scientists who have a peripheral interest in …

Epistasis plays a role in determining the phenotype, yet quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping
has uncovered little evidence for it. To address this apparent contradiction, we analyzed …

Drought is an important climatic phenomenon which, after soil infertility, ranks as the second
most severe limitation to maize production in developing countries. When drought stress …

Molecular markers were used to map and characterize quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for
several characters of agronomic and biological importance in an interspecific backcross of …

This study was conducted to compare maize quantitative trait loci (QTL) detection for grain
yield and yield components in F 2∶ 3 and F 6∶ 7 recombinant inbred (RI) lines from the …

Grain yield in the maize (Zea mays L) plant is sensitive to drought in the period three weeks
either side of flowering. Maize is well-adapted to the use of restriction fragment length …

Des ensembles de lignées de substitution offrent plusieurs avantages en tant que
populations en ségrégation pour l'étude rigoureuse de loci contribuant à des caractères …

A population of 257 BC 1 plants was developed from a cross between an elite processing
line of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum cv 'M82-1-7') and the closely related wild species L …

Abstract Random Amplified Polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs) were used to investigate
quantitative trait loci (QTL) for traits related to height growth on 126 F 2 seedlings of maritime …
