All markers associated with QTLs for grain yield-related traits reported in durum wheat genetic studies, whose marker are present in the consensus map developed by Maccaferri et al. [27]. On the left of the chromosome, the marker position in cM, which corresponds to that of the consensus map, is presented. On the right of the chromosome, the name of the markers and QTLs with a moderate/major effect on kernel weight (in green) and kernels number (in blue) traits is presented. Moreover, major QTLs with a pleiotropic effect on different categories are shown in red. QTLs detected in different populations are shown in bold.
