摘要: Starch is the principal carbohydrate source in maize kernels. Understanding the genetic basis of starch content (SC) benefits greatly in improving maize yield and optimizing end-use quality. Here, four double haploid (DH) populations were generated and were used to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with SC. The phenotype of SC exhibited continuous and approximate normal distribution in each population. A total of 13 QTLs for SC in maize kernels was detected in a range of 3.65-16.18% of phenotypic variation explained (PVE). Among those, only some partly overlapped with QTLs previously known to be related to SC. Meanwhile, 12 genes involved in starch synthesis and metabolism located within QTLs were identified in this study. These QTLs will lay the foundation to explore candidate genes regulating SC in maize kernel and facilitate the application of molecular marker-assisted selection for a breeding program to cultivate maize varieties with a deal of grain quality.
