Meta-analysis of constitutive QTLs for disease resistance in maize and its synteny conservation in the rice genome

L. Zhao, Liu, H. J., Zhang, C. X., Wang, Q. Y., and Li, X. H., Meta-analysis of constitutive QTLs for disease resistance in maize and its synteny conservation in the rice genome, vol. 14, pp. 961-970, 2015.

We collected data regarding 340 disease resistance quantitative trait loci (QTLs) from the maize genomic database (MaizeGDB). We constructed an integrated linkage map and analyzed this map by using the BioMercator 2.1 software with IBM2 2008 Neighbors genetic linkage map as a reference. We used a meta-analysis method to identify five “consensus” synthetic resistance QTLs located on maize chromosomes 1, 3, 6, and 10, with map intervals of 5.14, 9.00, 28.50, 1.73, and 33.34 cM, respectively.

Genetic dissection of agronomic traits in Capsicum baccatum var. pendulum

M. M. Moulin, Rodrigues, R., Bento, C. S., Gonçalves, L. S. A., Santos, J. O., Sudré, C. P., and Viana, A. P., Genetic dissection of agronomic traits in Capsicum baccatum var. pendulum, vol. 14, pp. 2122-2132, 2015.

Genetic mapping is very useful for dissecting complex agronomic traits. Genetic mapping allows for identification of quantitative trait loci (QTL), provide knowledge on a gene position and its adjacent region, and enable prediction of evolutionary mechanisms, in addition to contributing to synteny studies. The aim of this study was to predict genetic values associated with different agronomic traits evaluated in an F2 population of Capsicum baccatum var. pendulum. Previously, a reference genetic map for C.
