QTL mapping and BSR-seq revealed loci and candidate genes associated with the sporadic multifoliolate phenotype in soybean (Glycine max).

ABSTRACT:

Key message

The QTLs and candidate genes governing the multifoliolate phenotype were identified by combining linkage mapping with BSR-seq, revealing a possible interplay between genetics and the environment in soybean leaf development. Soybean, as a legume, is typified by trifoliolate leaves. Although multifoliolate leaves (compound leaves with more than three leaflets each) have been reported in soybean, including sporadic appearances in the first compound leaves in a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population from a cross between cultivated soybean C08 and wild soybean W05 from this study, the genetic basis of this phenomenon is still unclear. Here, we integrated quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping with bulked segregant RNA sequencing (BSR-seq) to identify the genetic loci assoc
