Mapping and validation of a major QTL for primary root length of soybean seedlings grown in hydroponic conditions

Abstract Background The root system provides nutrient absorption and is closely related to abiotic stress tolerance, but it is difficult to study the roots under field conditions. This study was conducted to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with primary root length (PRL) during soyb...
