The ratio of amylose to amylopectin in maize kernel starch is important for the appearance, structure, and quality of food products and processing. This study aimed to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling amylose content in maize through association mapping with simple sequence repeat (SSR) and single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. The average value of amylose content for an 80-recombinant-inbred-line (RIL) population was 8.8 ±: 0.7%, ranging from 2.1 to 15.9%. We used two different analyses&mdash:Q + K and PCA + K mixed linear models (MLMs)&mdash:and found 38 (35 SNP and 3 SSR) and 32 (29 SNP and 3 SSR) marker&ndash:trait associations (MTAs) associated with amylose content. A total of 34 (31 SNP and 3 SSR) and 28 (25 SNP and 3 SSR) MTAs were confirmed in the Q + K and PCA + K MLMs, respectively. This study detected some candidate genes for amylose content, such as GRMZM2G118690-encoding BBR/BPC transcription factor, which is used for the control of seed development and is associated with the amylose content of rice. GRMZM5G830776-encoding SNARE-interacting protein (KEULE) and the uncharacterized marker PUT-163a-18172151-1376 were significant with higher R2 value in two difference methods. GRMZM2G092296 were also significantly associated with amylose content in this study. This study focused on amylose content using a RIL population derived from dent and waxy inbred lines using molecular markers. Future studies would be of benefit for investigating the physical linkage between starch synthesis genes using SNP and SSR markers, which would help to build a more detailed genetic map and provide new insights into gene regulation of agriculturally important traits.
