Positional cloning of qLW10 by using LEE-12 × MT03-1 segregating populations. a Mature ear leaf of the parents MT03-1 and LEE-12. Scale bar = 10 cm. b Statistical analysis of the LW between MT03-1 and LEE-12. c LOD profile of qLW10, which was identified in the F2 and F2:3 populations. d qLW10 was mapped to a 3.3-Mb genomic DNA region between the markers IDP9050 and MTL02 by using 3,292 BC2F1 and 669 BC3F1 plants. The numbers (Num) and LW are shown for the recombinant plants (I–III) and the non-recombinant plants (IV). The black and grey bars represent the chromosomal segments for the homozygous MT03-1 and heterozygous alleles, respectively. The data are shown as the mean ± SD. Scale bar = 2 Mb. e Four allelic variations in the candidate gene ZmCSLD1; the insertions (triangles) and point mutations are shown. Scale bar = 1 kb. f–g LW in the lines with four pairs of allelic samples (f) and three pairs of F1 hybrids (g). The data are shown as the mean ± SD (n = 30). **P < 0.01 (Student’s t-test)
