Earliness, an adaptive trait and factor of variation for agronomic characters, is a major trait in plant breeding. In present investigation, the experimental material comprised of P1, P2, F1, F2 and F2:3 generations of wheat crossDL-788-2 X GW-322 for earliness related traits with objective of linkage and QTL mapping in bread wheat. Out of 200 SSR markers screened for parental polymorphism for earliness related traits, only 11% of SSR markers showed good polymorphism between two parental lines. |
