Fig. 4From: Fine-mapping of qGW4.05, a major QTL for kernel weight and size in maizeValidation of qGW4.05 for hundred kernel weight (HKW) in the RIL population in six different environments. The RILs were genotyped by using the markers NO4 and ND4M26. The distributions and mean values for HKW are shown for the two homozygous genotypes, Huangzaosi and LV28, at six experimental sites. Compared with the RIL families with the LV28 homozygous genotype at the qGW4.05 region, the RIL families with the Huangzaosi homozygous genotype at the qGW4.05 region had significantly higher (P < 0.01) hundred-kernel weight across the six different environmentsBack to article page
