Trait genotypic variation within a family is indicative of the family's informativeness for genetic studies. Accurate prediction of the most useful parental combinations within a species would help guide quantitative genetics studies. We tested the reliability of genotypic and phenotypic distance estimators between pairs of maize inbred lines to predict genotypic variation for quantitative traits within families derived from biparental crosses. We developed 25 families composed of ~200 random recombinant inbred lines each from crosses between a common reference parent inbred, B73, and 25 diverse maize inbreds. Parents and families were evaluated for 19 quantitative traits across up to 11 environments. Genetic distances (GDs) among parents were estimated with 44 simple sequence repeat and 2303 single-nucleotide polymorphism markers. GDs among parents had no predictive value for progeny variation, which is most likely due to the choice of neutral markers. In contrast, we observed for about half of the traits measured a positive correlation between phenotypic parental distances and within-family genetic variance estimates. Consequently, the choice of promising segregating populations can be based on selecting phenotypically diverse parents. These results are congruent with models of genetic architecture that posit numerous genes affecting quantitative traits, each segregating for allelic series, with dispersal of allelic effects across diverse genetic material. This architecture, common to many quantitative traits in maize, limits the predictive value of parental genotypic or phenotypic values on progeny variance.}, number={5}, journal={HEREDITY}, author={Hung, H-Y and Browne, C. and Guill, K. and Coles, N. and Eller, M. and Garcia, A. and Lepak, N. and Melia-Hancock, S. and Oropeza-Rosas, M. and Salvo, S. and et al.}, year={2012}, month={May}, pages={490–499} }

During this time, changes in maize leaf angle and size have altered plant architecture, allowing more efficient light capture as planting density has increased. Through a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of the maize nested association mapping panel, we determined the genetic basis of important leaf architecture traits and identified some of the key genes. Overall, we demonstrate that the genetic architecture of the leaf traits is dominated by small effects, with little epistasis, environmental interaction or pleiotropy. In particular, GWAS results show that variations at the liguleless genes have contributed to more upright leaves. These results demonstrate that the use of GWAS with specially designed mapping populations is effective in uncovering the basis of key agronomic traits.}, number={2}, journal={NATURE GENETICS}, author={Tian, Feng and Bradbury, Peter J. and Brown, Patrick J. and Hung, Hsiaoyi and Sun, Qi and Flint-Garcia, Sherry and Rocheford, Torbert R. and McMullen, Michael D. and Holland, James B. and Buckler, Edward S.}, year={2011}, month={Feb}, pages={159–U113} }

Merrill] to higher latitudinal environments. The objective of this study was to identify and map the maturity genes for incandescent long daylength (ILD) insensitivity for two landraces, ‘Miharudaizu’ and ‘Sakamotowase’, which belong to different cultivar groups. Two F9 recombinant inbred line (RIL) families were developed by means of a repetitive heterozygote selection method from the F2 population of the cross between the two landraces. Linkage analyses with isozyme and simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers revealed that the maturity gene for ILD insensitivity from Miharudaizu was a recessive allele at the E4 locus on Molecular linkage group (MLG) I. The MLG I order of the E4 locus and four markers was determined as Satt239–Satt496–E4–Enp–Satt354. The maturity gene for ILD insensitivity from Sakamotowase was found to cosegregate with four tightly linked SSRs on MLG C2, and was determined as a recessive allele at the E1 locus. The genotypes at the E3 locus for both Miharudaizu and Sakamotowase were estimated as e3e3 on the basis of the responses of late-flowering near-isogenic lines to fluorescent long daylength (FLD). The results obtained in this study suggest that Miharudaizu has the genotype of E1E1e3e3e4e4 and Sakamotowase has the genotype of e1e1e3e3E4E4 Because the e1 allele cannot induce flowering in ILD in the presence of the E4 allele, an unknown gene may condition the ILD insensitivity of Sakamotowase, possibly while combined with the e1 allele.}, number={1}, journal={CROP SCIENCE}, author={Flint-Garcia, SA and Jampatong, C and Darrah, LL and McMullen, MD}, year={2003}, pages={13–22} }

Before this potential can be realized, we must understand the nature of linkage disequilibrium (LD) within a genome. LD, the nonrandom association of alleles at different loci, plays an integral role in association mapping, and determines the resolution of an association study. Recently, association mapping has been exploited to dissect quantitative trait loci (QTL). With the exception of maize and Arabidopsis, little research has been conducted on LD in plants. The mating system of the species (selfing versus outcrossing), and phenomena such as population structure and recombination hot spots, can strongly influence patterns of LD. The basic patterns of LD in plants will be better understood as more species are analyzed. }, journal={ANNUAL REVIEW OF PLANT BIOLOGY}, author={Flint-Garcia, SA and Thornsberry, JM and Buckler, ES}, year={2003}, pages={357–374} }
