Khanal, R., Navabi, A. and Lukens, L. 2015. Linkage map construction and quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping using intermated vs. selfed recombinant inbred maize line (Zea mays L.). Can. J. Plant Sci. 95: 1133-1144. Intermating of individuals in an F2 population increases genetic recombination between markers, which is useful for linkage map construction and quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping. The objectives of this study were to compare the linkage maps and precision of QTL detection in an intermated recombinant inbred line (IRIL) population and a selfed recombinant inbred line (RIL) population. Both, IRIL and RIL, populations were developed from Zea mays inbred lines CG60 and CG102. The populations were grown in two environments to evaluate traits, and inbred lines from each population were genotyped with SSR and SNP markers for linkage map construction and QTL identification. In addition, we simulated RIL and IRIL populations from two inbred parents to compare the precision of QTL detection betwee...
