RESUMO
Pleiotropy has played an important role in understanding quantitative traits. However, the extensiveness of this effect in the genome and its consequences for plant improvement have not been fully elucidated. The aim of this study was to identify pleiotropic quantitative trait loci (QTL) in maize using Bayesian multiple interval mapping. Additionally, we sought to obtain a better understanding of the inheritance, extent and distribution of pleiotropic effects of several components in maize production. The design III procedure was used from a population derived from the cross of the inbred lines L-14-04B and L-08-05F. Two-hundred and fifty plants were genotyped with 177 microsatellite markers and backcrossed to both parents giving rise to 500 backcrossed progenies, which were evaluated in six environments for grain yield and its components. The results of this study suggest that mapping isolated traits limits our understanding of the genetic architecture of quantitative traits. This architecture can be better understood by using pleiotropic networks that facilitate the visualization of the complexity of quantitative inheritance, and this characterization will help to develop new selection strategies. It was also possible to confront the idea that it is feasible to identify QTLs for complex traits such as grain yield, as pleiotropy acts prominently on its subtraits and as this trait can be broken down and predicted almost completely by the QTLs of its components. Additionally, pleiotropic QTLs do not necessarily signify pleiotropy of allelic interactions, and this indicates that the pervasive pleiotropy does not limit the genetic adaptability of plants.
