abstract = {Root system architecture (RSA) is a target for plant
breeding because of the interest to develop crops with roots
that use nutrients and water more effectively. Breeding for
root traits require phenotypic diversity in populations
amenable to quantitative trait loci (QTL) identification to
provide markers for large breeding programs. Our research
aims to identify the genetic variation for root traits
across a Multi-parent Advanced Generation Inter-Cross
(MAGIC) wheat population by implementing the use of a
state-of-the-art phenotyping platform, which is an automated
non-invasive high throughput phenotyping system,
GrowScreen-Rhizo III (based on Nagel et al., 2012). With the
help of the platform, we will be able to quantify root
traits of plants grown in rhizoboxes filled with a substrate
providing mechanical impedance to root growth and record the
dynamics of both root and shoot development during an early
plant developmental stage. The NIAB eight-parent winter
wheat MAGIC population (Mackay et al., 2014) will provide
high-density and high-resolution genotypic information, and
reliable pedigree map to help with the association study.
The phenotypic data will subsequently be correlated to
genotypic data and QTLs linked to the traits of shoot and
root are identified by Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS).
Newly detected QTLs and candidate genes will require further
validation. Our findings will not only increase the
knowledge about root traits and their roles at early stage
of crop establishment, a critical stage for crop
productivity, but also provide novel genetic material for
selection in breeding. The root phenotyping of the young
wheat plant in the controlled environment will also provide
valuable reference data for future studies in the field for
exploring root development and its correlation to the
stress/disease tolerance. We suggest that genes and QTLs
revealed in our study could be a target in the wheat
breeding practice when introduced in breeding programs.},
