Candidate gene genomic locations, conserved domains and gene structures. a The genomic location, conserved domain and gene structure of Glyma01g15506; b The genomic locations, conserved domains and gene structures of Glyma02g08910 and Glyma02g11110; c The genomic location, conserved domain and gene structure of Glyma07g15960; d The genomic locations, conserved domains and gene structures of Glyma15g19670 and Glyma15g19810. The candidate genes were originated from the genetic intervals of distinct major QTL hotspots. The bin markers were corresponding to different chlorophyll-content traits QTLs in this study. Both the major QTL hotspots and major QTLs were emphasized in red color. The gray lines in gene structure diagrams indicate introns and the different gene structural components were exhibited by different colored boxes. UTR: untranslated region; CDS: coding sequence
