A schematic model for quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping and the discovery of functional genes for a specific trait. To discover candidate genes for specific traits, a number of plant populations were used as a genetic resource. These resources were QTL mapping, GWAS (genome-wide association study), and transcriptomic analysis to allocate candidate genes for control of a specific character.
