Hotspot Regions of Quantitative Trait Loci and Candidate Genes for Ear-Related Traits in Maize: A Literature Review

Xingjie Zhang,
Jiachen Sun,
Yudong Zhang
et al.

Abstract: In this study, hotspot regions, QTL clusters, and candidate genes for eight ear-related traits of maize (ear length, ear diameter, kernel row number, kernel number per row, kernel length, kernel width, kernel thickness, and 100-kernel weight) were summarized and analyzed over the past three decades. This review aims to (1) comprehensively summarize and analyze previous studies on QTLs associated with these eight ear-related traits and identify hotspot bin regions located on maize chromosomes and key candidate … Show more

“…The main objective of QTL mapping is to connect the genetic markers with phenotypic traits, thus unraveling the genetic blueprint of complex traits [1]. Following the identification of QTLs, the subsequent steps include validation and fine mapping to accurately identify the specific genes implicated [2]. QTL mapping has become a pivotal tool in the genetic analysis of forage crops, shedding light on the complex genetic makeup underlying pivotal agronomic characteristics, including the yield potential, forage quality, and resilience to biotic as well as abiotic stressors [3].…”
