Integrating RNA-Seq and linkage mapping to identify and characterize qESCT2, a cold tolerance QTL at the early seedling stage in rice

Cold stress significantly limits rice productivity, particularly at the early seedling stage. Identifying key genes responsible for cold tolerance is crucial for breeding resilient rice varieties. In the study, we identified a quantitative trait locus (QTL), qESCT2, associated with cold tolerance at...
