Abstract
Seed dormancy is an important trait associated with pre-sprouting and malting quality in barley. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have been used to detect quantitative trait loci (QTLs) underlying complex traits in major crops. In the present study, we collected 295 barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) accessions from Australia, Europe, Canada and China. A total of 25,179 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)/diversity arrays technology sequence markers were used for population structure, linkage disequilibrium and GWAS analysis. Candidate genes within QTL regions were investigated, and their expression levels were analysed using RNAseq data. Five QTLs for seed dormancy were identified. One QTL was mapped on chromosome 1H, and one QTL was mapped on chromosome 4H, while three QTLs were located on chromosome 5H. This is the first report of a QTL on the short arm of chromosome 5H in barley. Molecular markers linked to the QTL can be used for marker-assisted selection in barley breeding programmes.
