Comparative mapping of quantitative trait loci associated with waterlogging tolerance in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)
Abstract Background Resistance to soil waterlogging stress is an important plant breeding objective in high rainfall or poorly drained areas across many countries in the world.The present study was conducted to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with waterlogging tolerance (e.g.leaf chlorosis, plant survival and biomass reduction) i
