Popis: A major and stable QTL cQSGR.sau.3D, which can explain 33.25% of the phenotypic variation in SGR, was mapped and validated, and cQSGR.sau.3D was found to be independent of GI. In this study, a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population containing 304 lines derived from the cross of Chuan-nong17 (CN17) and Chuan-nong11 (CN11) was genotyped using the Wheat55K single-nucleotide polymorphism array. A high-density genetic map consisting of 8329 markers spanning 4131.54 cM and distributed across 21 wheat chromosomes was constructed. QTLs for whole spike germination rate (SGR) were identified in multiple years. Six and fourteen QTLs were identified using the Inclusive Composite Interval Mapping-Biparental Populations and Multi-Environment Trial methods, respectively. A total of 106 digenic epistatic QTLs were also detected in this study. One of the additive QTLs, cQSGR.sau.3D, which was mapped in the region from 3.5 to 4.5 cM from linkage group 3D-2 on chromosome 3D, can explain 33.25% of the phenotypic variation in SGR and be considered a major and stable QTL for SGR. This QTL was independent of the seeds' germination traits, such as germination index. One Kompetitive Allele-Specific PCR (KASP) marker, KASP-AX-110772653, which is tightly linked to cQSGR.sau.3D, was developed. The genetic effect of cQSGR.sau.3D on SGR in the RIL and natural populations was successfully confirmed. Furthermore, within the interval in which cQSGR.sau.3D is located in Chinese Spring reference genomes, thirty-seven genes were found. cQSGR.sau.3D may provide new resources for pre-harvest sprouting resistance breeding of wheat in the future.
