The quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for cold tolerance relative characters were identified with microsatellite markers.Ten QTLs located on chromosome 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11(two)and 12 were detected for seedling height...The quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for cold tolerance relative characters were identified with microsatellite markers.Ten QTLs located on chromosome 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11(two)and 12 were detected for seedling height at different low temperature. Only 2 of these were detected at the same locus at four environments, 1 was significant at three environments, 6 were significant at two environments and 1 was significant at one environment. Seven QTLs located on chromosome 1(two), 2(two),5,6,8 were found for low temperature chlorosis resistance and five QTLs located on chromosome 3, 4, 7, 8, 11 resistant to chilling injury. The amount of variation explained by individual QTL ranged from 4.85%to 49.34%. There was no linkage relationship among the three characters, which indicates seedling cold tolerance is a complex character and is controlled by different QTLs.展开更多
