QTL-LOD profile for fruit texture dissected traits on LG 10. The different texture sub-traits are visualized with different colours, while the red arrow points to the position coincident with the Md-PG1_SSR10kd locus. In the linkage group chart, the microsatellite marker used to map the Md-PG1 gene and presented in Longhi et al. [27] is shown in bold black text, whereas the novel microsatellite marker named Md-PG1_SSR10kd is presented in bold red text.
