Kurzfassung:
As a primitive hexaploid wheat resource distributed only in Tibet, Tibetan semi-wild wheat (Triticum aestivum subsp. tibetanum Shao) possesses unique characteristics that could be exploited in wheat breeding programs. Its good root system could offer a stable platform for above-ground components. To detect possible excellent locus for root traits from Tibetan semi-wild wheat, we identified QTLs for root traits using a recombinant inbred line population derived from a cross between Tibetan semi-wild wheat Q1028 and Zhengmai 9023. A total of 15 QTLs on eight chromosomes were detected, including four major QTLs, QMrl.sau-7B, QTrl.sau-4B, QAd.sau-7A, and QSa.sau-4B. The phenotypic variation explained by each of these QTLs ranges from 5.67% to 16.68%. Positive alleles of six QTLs were derived from Q1028. Several novel QTLs for root traits were identified. In addition, significant correlations were detected amongst root traits and agronomic traits. Taken together, these results suggest that Tibetan semi-wild wheat and the newly identified novel QTLs could be useful in future breeding programs.
