<p>A method of plant breeding applicable to self-pollinating plants, and plants produced by use of the method, includes the use of molecular markers linked to interacting loci that affect traits of agronomic value. The method allows one to identify a first molecular marker linked to a quantitative trait locus (QTL) and a second molecular marker linked to a modifying locus having an epistatic effect in combination with the QTL. Conventional breeding steps can then be used to introgress the interacting loci into other plant varieties.</p> |
