QTLs identified for root traits, seedling dry weight and P content using single and multiple traits MIM analyses. The markers are represented as vertical traces along the horizontal lines, which represent the chromosomes and are numbered in centiMorgans (cM). The candidate genes are depicted below the red vertical traces. QTL profiles for single trait MIM are shown as colored lines according to the legend for root length (RL), root average diameter (RD), root surface area (SA), surface area of fine roots (SA2), root:shoot ratio (R:S), total seedling dry weight (TDW) and total P content (Pcont). Multi trait QTL profiles are shown as black line. The QTL peaks are depicted with an inverted triangle colored according to the legend followed by the bin. The confidence interval (95 %) for each QTL is represented by a horizontal line above the chromosomes colored according to the legend
