ABSTRACT
Genetic variation is the basis of selection, evolution and breeding. Maize landraces represent a rich source of allelic diversity, but their efficient utilization in breeding and research has been hampered by their heterogeneous and heterozygous nature and insufficient information about most accessions. While molecular inventories of germplasm repositories are growing steadily, linking these data to meaningful phenotypes for quantitative traits is challenging. Here, we present comprehensive molecular and phenotypic data for â¼1,000 doubled-haploid (DH) lines derived from three pre-selected European maize landraces. Due to their full homozygosity, the DH lines can be multiplied ad libitum and represent a powerful biological resource available to the community. The DH lines allow high-precision phenotyping in repeated experiments and reveal the full additive genetic variance of the population. The DH lines were evaluated for nine agronomically important, quantitative traits in multi-environment field trials comprising seven locations and two years. The DH populations revealed high genetic variance and high heritability for the analysed traits. The DH lines were genotyped with 600k SNP markers. After stringent quality filtering 500k markers remained for further analyses. This is the largest resource of landrace derived DH material in maize, unprecedented in its structure and dimension. The presented data are ideal for linking molecular variation to meaningful phenotypes. They can be used for genome-wide association studies, genomic prediction, and population genetic analyses as well as for developing and testing statistical methods. All plant material is available to the community for conducting additional experiments, extending the panel of traits and environments, and for testing the landrace-derived lines in combination with other genetic material.
