QTL mapping for aluminum tolerance in RIL population of soybean (Glycine max L.) by RAD sequencing.

ABSTRACT: Aluminum (Al3+) toxicity is a typical abiotic stress that severely limits crop production in acidic soils. In this study, an RIL (recombinant inbred line, F12) population derived from the cross of Zhonghuang 24 (ZH 24) and Huaxia 3 (HX 3) (160 lines) was tested using hydroponic cultivation. Relative root elongation (RRE) and apical Al3+ content (AAC) were evaluated for each line, and a significant negative correlation was detected between the two indicators. Based on a high-density genetic linkage map, the phenotypic data were used to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with these traits. With composite interval mapping (CIM) of the linkage map, five QTLs that explained 39.65% of RRE and AAC variation were detected on chromosomes (Chrs) Gm04, Gm16, Gm17 and Gm19. Two new QTL
