Abstract

Aims The improvement of nitrogen-deficiency tolerance (NDT) and nitrogen-use efficiency (NUE) traits is an important objective of many rice breeding programs. A better understanding of their relationship is required for more efficient breeding. The objectives of this study were to map quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for NDT and NUE traits, and to gain a better understanding about the genetic basis of the relationships between NUE and NDT traits.
