QTL mapping for yield contributing traits in mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) using a RIL population.

ABSTRACT: Mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) is one of the most important yet genomically under-researched leguminous food crop. Its productivity is low due to the complex nature of yield realization, which is regulated by various yield-contributing traits. Thus, understanding the genetic basis of these traits is essential for developing an ideal genotype with high yield. In this study, mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) was conducted for six yield-contributing traits using a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population (166 number), developed by crossing two contrasting genotypes (Pusa Baisakhi × PMR-1). The genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) of RILs was used to construct the genetic map using 1347 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs). The QTL mapping using multiple interval mapping (MIM) and composite in
