Associations of five FHB-related traits with molecular markers in the 3.1 -Mb genomic region.

<p>(a) Dot plots of the compressed mixed linear model (MLM) for numbers of diseased spikelets (NDS). Negative log₁₀-transformed <i>P</i> values in a sequenced contig (<i>ctg954</i>) of 3.1-Mb are plotted against position along the chromosome region. Blue horizontal dashed line represents the chromosome-region significance threshold. (b) Quantile-quantile plot of compressed MLM for NDS. (c) Dot plots of compressed MLM for lengths of diseased rachides (LDR), as in a. (d) Quantile-quantile plot of compressed MLM for LDR. (e) Dot plots of compressed MLM for five FHB phenotypic traits, i.e. number of diseased spikelets (NDS), percentage of diseased spikelets (PDS), the length of diseased rachides (LDR), disease severity (DS) and disease index (DI), as in a.
