Construction of a novel Wheat 55 K SNP array-derived genetic map and its utilization in QTL mapping for grain yield and quality related traits.

ABSTRACT: Wheat is one of the most important staple crops for supplying nutrition and energy to people world. A new genetic map based on the Wheat 55 K SNP array was constructed using recombinant inbred lines derived from a cross between Zhongkemai138 and Kechengmai2 to explore the genetic foundation for wheat grain features. This new map covered 2,155.72 cM across the 21 wheat chromosomes with 11,455 markers. And 2,846 specific markers for this genetic map and 148 coincident markers among different maps were documented, which was helpful for improving and updating wheat genetic and genomic information. Using this map, a total of 68 additive QTLs and 82 pairs of epistatic QTLs were detected for grain features including yield, nutrient composition, and quality-related traits by QTLNetwork 2.1 and Ici
