Seed oil content is a key seed quality trait determining the economic value of rapeseed (Brassica napus L.). However, it is a complex quantitative trait controlled by multiple genes. To this point, its genetic mechanism in rapeseed remains to be revealed. In the present study, we separately identified the quantitative trait loci (QTL) controlling seed oil content of B. napus using three generations of recombinant inbred line (RIL) populations (F4:5, F5:6, and F6:7) derived from a cross of two contrasting parents (M201, a high-oil parent, and M202, a low-oil parent) in four trials. The results indicated that the additive effects may be the primary factors contributing to the variation in seed oil content in B. napus. A total of 15 QTL for seed oil content were mapped. Two of them, namely qOC-A9-3 and qOC-A10, were consistently detected across two and all four environments, respectively. Meanwhile, qOC-A10 showed a large effect on phenotypic variation in seed oil content. The stability and significance of qOC-A10 was also validated in the near isogenic lines (NILs-qOC-A10) developed from the RIL population (F4:5) using marker-assisted selection. The qOC-A10 is of particular interest for further fine mapping and map-based cloning.

Here we present the first genetic analysis of adiponectin levels, a newly identified adipocyte-derived protein. Recent work has suggested that adiponectin may play a role in mediating the effects of body weight as a risk factor for coronary artery disease. For this analysis we assayed serum levels of adiponectin in 1100 adults of predominantly northern European ancestry distributed across 170 families. Quantitative genetic analysis of adiponectin levels detected an additive genetic heritability of 46%. The maximum LOD score detected in a genome wide scan for adiponectin levels was 4.06 (P = 7.7 × 10−6), 35 cM from pter on chromosome 5. The second largest LOD score (LOD = 3.2; P = 6.2 × 10−5) was detected on chromosome 14, 29 cM from pter. The detection of a significant linkage with a quantitative trait locus on chromosome 5 provides strong evidence for a replication of a previously reported quantitative trait locus for obesity-related phenotypes. In addition, several secondary signals offer potential evidence of replications for additional previously reported obesity-related quantitative trait loci on chromosomes 2 and 10. Not only do these results identify quantitative trait loci with significant effects on a newly described, and potentially very important, adipocyte-derived protein, they also reveal the emergence of a consistent pattern of linkage results for obesity-related traits across a number of human populations.
