, number of panicles per plant; NGP, number of grains per panicle; NSP, number of spikelets per panicle; SF, spikelet fertility; TGW, 1000-grain weight; GY, grain yield per plant. are designated following the rules recommended by McCouch and CGSNL [31]. the QTL effects were significant at the level of . In the RIL, the effect refers to the additive effect of replacing a Teqing allele with an IR24 allele. In the testcross, the effect refers to the increase of genetic effect when a Zhong 9A/Teqing heterozygote is replaced with a Zhong 9A/IR24 heterozygote. In , the effect refers to the increase of dominance effect when a Zhong 9A/Teqing heterozygote is replaced with a Zhong 9A/IR24 heterozygote. of phenotypic variance explained by the given QTL. Value in parenthesis refers to the contribution due to genotype-by-environment interaction. , genetic action mode. A, additive; D, dominance; OD, overdominance.
