Additive QTL × development interactions for seed vigor identified in joint analysis of three-maturity values by QTLNetwork in 2012.

aSeeds were collected at 4, 5 and 6 weeks after heading; GP, Germination potential; GR, germination rate; GI, germination index; T50, time for 50% of germination;bChromosome on which the QTL was located;cA represents the estimated additive effects of additive QTL; ** indicates significance at the level of 1%; its positive value indicates that Jiucaiqing has the positive allele and the case of negative values is just the opposite;dAD1, AD2 and AD3 represents the additive effect of additive QTL for the vigor of seeds collected at 4, 5 and 6 weeks after heading, respectively; its positive value indicates that Jiucaiqing has the positive allele and the case of negative values is just the opposite;er2 (A) represents the phenotypic variation explained by the additive QTL; r2 (AD) represents the phenotypic variation explained by the additive QTL × development interactions.Additive QTL × development interactions for seed vigor identified in joint analysis of three-maturity values by QTLNetwork in 2012.
