Popis: Abstract Direct seeding of rice (Oryza sativa L.) is a low-labor and sustainable cultivation method that is used worldwide. Seed vigor and early vigor are important traits associated with seedling stand density (SSD) and weed competitive ability (WCA), which are key factors in direct-seeded rice (DSR) cultivation systems. Here, we developed a set of chromosome segment substitution lines with Xiushui134 as receptor parent and Yangdao6 as donor parent and used these lines as a mapping population to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for seed vigor, which we evaluated based on germinability–related indicators (germination percentage (GP), germination energy (GE), and germination index (GI)) and seedling vigor–related indicators (root number (RN), root length (RL), and shoot length (SL) at 14 days after imbibition) under controlled conditions in an incubator. Ten QTLs were detected across four chromosomes, of which a cluster of QTLs (qGP11, qGE11, qGI11, and qRL11) co-localized on Chr. 11 with high LOD values (12.03, 8.13, 7.14, and 8.75, respectively). Fine mapping narrowed down the QTL cluster to a 0.7-Mb interval between RM26797 and RM6680. Further analysis showed that the QTL cluster has a significant effect (p
