Co-localization of starch content QTLs in maize kernels identified in the current and previous studies. QTLs detected in previous studies are as follows: KC, CI7/K22; BB, By804/B73 [25, 30]; DN, N04/Dan232 [32]; GY, Gy220/8984 or 8622 [27]; KW, W64Ao2/K0326YQPM [31]; IO, Illinois Low Oil/Illinois High Oil [24]; IP, Illinois Low Protein/Illinois High Protein [18, 21]; FD, an early flint line/a late dent line linkage populations [19, 20] and NAM, a nested association mapping population [28]. The vertical dark green lines indicate the positions of 18 well-known genes encoding key enzymes in maize starch metabolism
