Verification of plant height QTL, qPH1a. Two BC5F1 ILs and three BC6F1 recombinants were genotyped by four Indels markers: Yellow, heterozygous; Green, Zheng58. The heterozygous segment of each ILs would segregate into two types of genotypes in its Zheng58-crossed progenies: homozygous Zheng58 and heterozygous. A simple t-test was performed to test PH difference between these genotypes. If significant difference (p < 0.05) was observed then qPH1a should be localized in the heterozygous region, else in the homozygous region. Finally, qPH1a was defined downstream of 91.18 Mb in chromosome 1. aPhysical position for Indels. Rec. number of recombinants found in these progenies
