Figure 8.

Physical position of cross-validated SNPs in protein coding sequences of the ‘Lo7' genome assembly detected in the GWAS for grain yield, thousand-grain weight, plant height, tiller number and heading date. The positions of both self-incompatibility loci, S and Z, the restorer-of-fertility locus Rfp1 depicting the rye's unique reproduction biology, and the GA-sensitive dwarfing gene Ddw1 are given as well. For ‘Lo7' orthologs of cloned rice QTL the corresponding rice gene symbols were adapted to rye. The positions of the markers in the ‘Lo7' physical map are given in Mbp. The horizontal bars and QTL symbols indicate the position of grain yield (QGyd-2R), heading date (QHdt), thousand-grain weight (QTgw), plant height (QPh), and spikes per squaremeter (QSsm).
