Abstract:Background
The Multi-Parent Advanced Generation Inter-Cross (MAGIC) population is a powerful tool for dissecting the genetic architecture controlling natural variation in complex traits. In this work, the natural variation available in Arabidopsis thaliana MAGIC lines was evaluated by mapping quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for primary root length (PRL), lateral root number (LRN), lateral root length (LRL), adventitious root number (ARN) and adventitious root length (ARL).
