Abstract:This study was conducted to detect quantitative trait loci QTL associated with drought tolerance in wheat genotypes by the SSR markers and to provide valuable information for marker assisted selection. SSR markers linked to flag leaf senescence (FLS) was identified in two DNA pools, which were established using F 2 mapping population resulting from a cross between a drought sensitive genotype 'Variant-11' and drought tolerant genotype 'Veery'. Parents were screened initially with 34 SSR primer pairs. The linka… Show more
