Analysis of QTLs on heading date based on single segment substitution lines in rice (Oryza Sativa L.)

Abstract Single segment substitution lines (SSSLs) have been confirmed to be powerful tools to perform quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis. This study illuminated the process and methods of QTL analysis with SSSLs on heading date (HD) in rice. QTL identification under two cropping seasons reveal...
