Abstract
The invention provides a method of associating a gene or an expression product with a complexly inherited phenotypic trait of interest in a plant. Plants are segregated by the presence or absence of a genetic marker. One or more of the segregated groups are expression profiled to determine the gene associated with the phenotypic trait of interest. The gene associated with the phenotypic trait of interest can be identified and/or isolated.
