Additional file 1: Figure S1. of Ploidy effect and genetic architecture exploration of stalk traits using DH and its corresponding haploid populations in maize

Route used to develop DH population and the corresponding haploid populations. Figure S2. Presentation of DH and haploid populations planted in field. Figure S3. Histogram for genotypic percentage in DH population. Figure S4. QTL detected frequency for RPR and IVDMD in DH and haploid populations with five-split cross validation for 1000 times. For RPR, the QTL at bin 2.02 and 5.05 were detected in DH and haploid population with high frequencies in the 1000 cross-validation, respectively. For IVDMD, the QTL at bin 8.04 and 8.05 were detected in DH and haploid population with high frequencies in the 1000 cross-validation, respectively. Table S1. Primer sequences of genes involved in lignin and cellulose synthesis for RT-PCR. Table S2. Summary of SNP characteristics of DH population. Table S3. Summary of the linkage map characteristics DH population. Table S4. QTL detected for other stalk traits in DH and haploid populations. Table S5. Annotation of the 45 predicted genes located within putative RPR QTL interval in DH population. Table S6. Annotation of the 191 predicted genes located within putative RPR QTL interval in haploid population. Table S7. Annotation of the 24 predicted genes located within the putative IVDMD QTL interval in DH population. Table S8. Annotation of the 191 predicted genes located within putative IVDMD QTL interval in haploid population. (DOCX 870 kb
