Functional association between malting quality trait component and cDNA array based expression patterns in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)

We developed an approach for relating differences in gene expression to the phenotypic variation of a trait of interest. This allows the identification of candidate genes for traits that display quantitative variation. To validate the principle, gene expression was monitored on a cDNA array with 1400 ESTs to identify genes involved in the...
