Figure 1

Phenotypic and QTL analysis of the DNZ CSSL population. (a) Variation of the phenotypic traits in the DNZ CSSL population. In the box plots, the horizontal line within the box indicates the median value; the bars of the box indicate the limits as 1.5 times the interquartile range from the box; the dots outside the bars indicate the most extreme data points or possible outliers. The red dot indicates the phenotype value of ZS97. (b) Overviews of QTL results for seven traits in the DNZ CSSL population. Rectangle color density indicates the magnitude of -log10 (P) values in the ridge regression significance test. The horizontal position of the rectangle indicates the relative physical position of QTL support interval on the chromosome. The triangle indicates approximately physical location of a known gene for grain size. GL, GW, TGW, SN, PB, PL and PW represent grain length, grain width, thousand-grain weight, spikelet number, primary branch, panicle length and panicle weight, respectively. The sub-figures (a, b) were prepared using R software (version 3.5.2) (http://www.R-project.org/).
