From: The genetic architecture of phosphorus efficiency in sorghum involves pleiotropic QTL for root morphology and grain yield under low phosphorus availability in the soil

Fig. 4

Physical positions of SbPSTOL1 genes in the context of the QTL regions detected by multi-trait QTL mapping (Fig. 3d). The root morphology traits assessed after 13 days in nutrient solution with low-P are root diameter (RD, mm) and surface area of fine roots between 1 and 2 mm in diameter (SA2, in cm2). Possible pleiotropy between Gy (grain yield), SA2 and RD QTL, when detected, were depicted by slashes in the QTL designations. Physical positions and gene models for the SbPSTOL1 genes (https://phytozome.jgi.doe.gov/, v1.4 of the sorghum genome), a Sb03g006765, b the SbPSTOL1 cluster including Sb03g031690 and (c) Sb07g002840 are shown
