Abstract
Quantitative trait locus (QTLs) mapping for rapid visco analyser (RVA) profile parameters has been carried out by using a double haploid (DH) population derhred from a cross betweenindica variety Zhai-Ye-Qing 8 andjaponica variety Jing-Xi 17 and its genetic linkage map. The results indicate that the segregation of the RVA profiles is continually distributed among the DH lines, and some DH lines show transgressive segregation for all the parameters. A major QTL,Waxy (Wx) gene on chromosome 6 which controls the amylose synthesis, has been detected significantly for 5 traits: hot paste viscosity (HPV), cool paste viscosity (CPV), breakdown viscosity (BDV), consistency viscoslty (CSV) and setback viscoslty (SBV). Therefore, the RVA profile parameters are mainly controlled byWx gene. Other 3 and 2 QTLs have also been identified for BDV and SBV, respectively, and two of them share the same region on chromosomes 1 and 5. However, the peak viscosity (PKV) is controlled by a minor QTL on chromosome 12, qPKV-12.
