Genetic background effects on QTL and QTL × environment interaction for yield and its component traits as revealed by reciprocal introgression lines in rice

QTLs for quantitative traits are influenced by genetic background (GB) and environment. Identification of QTL with GB independency and environmental stability is prerequisite for effective marker-assisted selection (MAS). In this study, QTLs and QTL × environment interactions affecting grain yield p...
