Pleiotropy or linkage - one genomic segment controls multiple drought-related traits in maize.

Drought is one of the major constraints of plant productivity worldwide and drought tolerance therefore constitutes a highly important agronomic trait. We used a maize introgression library (IL) to identify genomic regions with impact on drought and/or growth related traits. We have mapped a key region on chromosome 7 and propose here to study candidate genes identified through genetic mapping and RNA-seq analysis.
