Abstract The plant cuticle is essential in defense against biotic and abiotic stresses. To systematically elucidate the genetic architecture of maize (Zea mays L.) cuticular wax metabolism, 2 wax–related traits, chlorophyll extraction rate (CER) water loss (WLR) 389 inbred lines, were investigated a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed using 1.25 million single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). In total, 57 nonredundant quantitative trait loci (QTL) explaining 5.57% to 15.07%...
Summary Meat‐quality traits play an essential role in meat poultry production. To determine the genetic mechanisms of quality Pekin ducks, we performed a large‐scale GWAS to identify quantitative trait loci affecting ducks. We measured 10 542 ducks and genotyped each duck using genotyping‐by‐sequencing. The parameters (genomic heritability, correlation) for meat‐quality related were evaluated. Based on large genotype–phenotype dataset, GWASs all these traits. A total 33 significant QTL ( P...
