Quantitative trait locus (QTL) detection and mapping

Quantitative trait locus (QTL) detection and mapping
Previous Image | Next Image
Description: (a) Parental tomato plants producing large fruit (and homozygous for L marker alleles) or small fruit (and homozygous for S marker alleles) are crossed to produce F1 (LS). The F1 are then backcrossed to the large-fruit line to yield backcross progeny that are either LL or LS. (b) The significance of linkage between potential QTLs and genetic markers is tested among backcross progeny by lod score analysis. A lod score profile assessing fruit-weight QTLs reveals significant scores exceeding the threshold value on tomato chromosome 2(a) Parental tomato plants producing large fruit (and homozygous for L marker alleles) or small fruit (and homozygous for S marker alleles) are crossed to produce F1 (LS).
