| Ninety one doubled haploid lines produced from F1 hybrids of Wuhan-1 x Maringa made up the mapping and field study populations. 600 microsatellite markers were screened and maps were constructed using MAPMAKER 2.0, with a minimum LOD of 3.0 and maximum recombination fraction of 0.35. The 'compare' and 'ripple' commands were used to assemble the marker order in the final maps. |
| SAS systems for Microsoft Windows 8.01 performed the ANOVA. Homogeneity of error variances were tested using Bartlett's test at p = 0.05. Other statistical analysis was done using Microsoft Excel 7.0. QTL analysis used the composite interval mapping function of QTL Cartographer 1.16 (http://statgen.ncsu.edu) on yearly averages and the grand average from both years. |
| This is the first report of QTLs for FHB field resistance on chromosome 4B and near the centromere of 3BS |
| Loci with an 'Error = 1' value were mapped via consensus using the Synthetic x 'Opata' (ITMI) reference population |
