The Use of DArTseq Technology to Identify New SNP and SilicoDArT Markers Related to the Yield-Related Traits Components in Maize.

ABSTRACT: In the last decade, many scientists have used molecular biology methods in their research to locate the grain-yield-determining loci and yield structure characteristics in maize. Large-scale molecular analyses in maize do not only focus on the identification of new markers and quantitative trait locus (QTL) regions. DNA analysis in the selection of parental components for heterotic crosses is a very important tool for breeders. The aim of this research was to identify and select new markers for maize (SNP and SilicoDArT) linked to genes influencing the size of the yield components in maize. The plant material used for the research was 186 inbred maize lines. The field experiment was established in twolocations. The yield and six yield components were analyzed. For identification of SNP and
