Abstract:IntroductionSalt tolerance during seed germination is an important trait for direct seeding and low-cost rice production. Nevertheless, it is still not clear how seed germination under salt stress is regulated genetically.MethodsIn this study, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) were performed to decipher the genetic basis of seed germination under salt stress using 541 rice varieties collected worldwide.Results and discussionThree quantitative trait loci (QTLs) were identified including qGRG3-1 on chromoso… Show more
