Association Mapping and Functional Analysis of Rice Cold Tolerance QTLs at the Bud Burst Stage

Abstract Cold tolerance at the bud burst stage (CTB) is a key trait for direct-seeded rice. Although quantitative trait loci (QTL) affecting CTB in rice have been mapped using traditional linkage mapping and genome-wide association study (GWAS) methods, the underlying genes remain unknown. In this s...
