The QST values for individual traits and Z test for QST-FST comparison.
| Trait (abbreviation) | QST value | Z test |
|---|---|---|
| Anther length (ANL) | 0.9898 | -28.711*** |
| Awn length (AWL) | 0.9807 | 3.794*** |
| Culm diameter (CD) | 0.9504 | -4.544*** |
| Culm length (CL) | 0.9879 | -22.798*** |
| Flag leaf attitude (FLA) | 0.9659 | -4.223*** |
| Flag leaf length (FLL) | 0.8848 | 0.546 |
| Flag leaf width (FLW) | 0.9666 | -1.369 |
| Panicle exsertion (PE) | 0.9808 | -13.667*** |
| Panicle neck spikelet length (PNSPL) | 0.9534 | -7.120*** |
The FST value is 0.129 estimated based on the same set of populations using 33 SSR markers (Sandamal et al., 2018). Z tests for QST–FST comparison for both O. rufipogon and O. nivara samples. Significance: *, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01; ***, P < 0.001.
