aLTH, The lowest tillers height; PH, Plant height; SL, Spike length; SLU, Spike-layer uniformity; SLN, Spike-layer number; SLT, Spike-layer thickness
bA putative major QTL is marked in bold typeface and is characterized by a mean LOD > 3.0 and a mean PVE > 10%, and a putative stable QTL is underlined when this locus was detected in at least five of the nine data sets
cThe number of data sets where the corresponding QTL showed significance
dThe average LOD value across data sets
eThe average percentage of explained phenotypic variation by the QTL across data sets
fA positive sign indicates that the alleles from the Kenong9204 parent increased the corresponding trait value N, and a negative sign indicates that the alleles from the Jing411 parent increased the corresponding trait value
