Abstract
Wheat is one of the most important staple foods in the world. Genetic characterization of wheat agronomically important traits is crucial for yield improvement through molecular breeding. In this study, a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population was developed by crossing a local adapted high yield variety Jimai 22 (JM22) with an external variety Cunmai no.1 (CM1). A high-density genetic map containing 7,359 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers was constructed. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping identified 61 QTL for eight yield-related traits under six environments (years). Among them, 17 QTL affecting spike number per plant, grain number per spike and thousand grain weight showed high predictability for theoretical yield per plant (TYP), of which, 12 QTL alleles positively contributed to TYP. Nine promising candidate genes for seven of the 12 QTL were identified including three known wheat genes and six rice orthologs. Four elite lines with TYP increased by 5.6%-15.2% were identified through genotype selection which carried 7-9 favorable alleles from JM22 and 2-3 favorable alleles from CM1 of the 12 QTL. Moreover, the linked SNPs of the 12 QTL were converted to high-throughput kompetitive allele-specific PCR (KASP) markers and validated in the population. The mapped QTL, identified promising candidate genes, developed elite lines and KASP markers are highly valuable in future genotype selection to improve wheat yield.

期刊介绍：
Molecular Breeding is an international journal publishing papers on applications of plant molecular biology, i.e., research most likely leading to practical applications. The practical applications might relate to the Developing as well as the industrialised World and have demonstrable benefits for the seed industry, farmers, processing industry, the environment and the consumer.
All papers published should contribute to the understanding and progress of modern plant breeding, encompassing the scientific disciplines of molecular biology, biochemistry, genetics, physiology, pathology, plant breeding, and ecology among others.
Molecular Breeding welcomes the following categories of papers: full papers, short communications, papers describing novel methods and review papers. All submission will be subject to peer review ensuring the highest possible scientific quality standards.
Molecular Breeding core areas:
Molecular Breeding will consider manuscripts describing contemporary methods of molecular genetics and genomic analysis, structural and functional genomics in crops, proteomics and metabolic profiling, abiotic stress and field evaluation of transgenic crops containing particular traits. Manuscripts on marker assisted breeding are also of major interest, in particular novel approaches and new results of marker assisted breeding, QTL cloning, integration of conventional and marker assisted breeding, and QTL studies in crop plants.
