QTL co-localization of plant vigour and drought tolerance related traits using different density markers. Comparison of genomic region with harboring QTLs for various plant vigour and canopy conductance related traits (present study) and drought tolerance traits using 241 SSR-low density marker (Varshney et al. 2014), 1007 SSR + SNP high density marker (Jaganathan et al. 2015) and 1557-SNPs Ultra-high density marker (Kale et al. 2015) identified on CaLG04. The graph 4-I-A, 4-II-A & 4-III-A represent the QTLs identified for various plant vigour and canopy conductance related traits. The graph 4-I-B represent CaLG04 of consensus genetic map; 4-II-B represent CaLG04 of the fine genetic map (Genotype by sequence, GBS approach) and 4-III-B represent CaLG04 of fine bin map (Skim sequencing approach). The graph 4-I-C, 4-II-C & 4-III-C represent QTLs identified for various drought tolerance traits from previous studies. Common QTL regions for both plant vigour and canopy conductance (Present study) and drought tolerance related traits (Varshney et al. 2014; Jaganathan et al. 2015 and Kale et al. 2015) were highlighted in red/pink
