Abstract:

Spike traits are important to grain yield in wheat. Molecular markers associated with genes/QTLs controlling spike traits are highly valuable to marker-assisted breeding. A recombinant inbred line (F8) population derived from Zhou 8425B ? Xiaoyan 81 were evaluated in three environments, and QTLs for spike length, spikelet number per spike, sterile spikelet number, grain number per spike and thousand-grain weigh were mapped into a high-density genetic map built by 90k chip. A total of 71 QTLs were located on 19 chromosomes, and the phenotype variation explained (PVE) by a single locus ranged from 2.10% to 45.25%. Thirty-seven loci were considered as main-effect QTLs owing to the PVE larger than 10%. QTLs QSl.nafu-6A.2 for spike length, QSl.nafu-7A for spike length, QSsn.nafu-2A.1 for sterile spikelet number, QSsn.nafu-2D for sterile spikelet number and QGns.nafu-2B for grain number per spike were identified repeatedly in different environments with the LOD value higher than 10 and PVE larger than 20%. QSl.nafu-6A.2 for spike length, QGns.nafu-6A for grain number per spike and QTgw.nafu-6A for thousand-grain weight were mapped in a cluster on chromosome 6A and might be applicable in marker-assisted selection because they have been detected in multiple environments and close to the loci reported.

Key words: Triticum aestivum, Spike-related traits, 90k gene chip, QTL mapping
