Association and genomic location of known and new loci associated with forage quality traits. (a-c) Three identified genes were associated with forage quality traits. GRMZM2G140817 (ZmC3H2) (a) was associated with ADF, NDF, and IVDMD. GRMZM2G134752 (b) was associated with ADF and NDF. GRMZM2G042627 (c) was associated with ADF and IVDMD, with different leading SNPs. (Top) A 0.5-Mb region on each side of the leading SNP, which is denoted by a purple diamond. The color of the remaining SNPs reflects the r2 values with the most significantly associated SNP. Dashed horizontal lines depict the significance threshold (1 × 10−4). (Bottom) Gene structure according to the information from the B73 genome sequence in the GRAMENE database (http://ensembl.gramene.org/Zea_mays/Info/Index)
