Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) use is the leading cause of preventable death, due to deleterious chemical components and smoke from tobacco products, and therefore reducing harmful chemical components in tobacco is one of the crucial tobacco breeding targets. However, due to complexity of tobacco smoke and unavailability of high-density genetic maps, the genetic architecture of representative hazardous smoke has not been fully dissected. The present study aimed to explore the genetic architecture of nine hazardous component traits of mainstream smoke through QTL mapping using 271 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from K326 and Y3 in multiple environments. The analysis of genotype and genotype by environment interaction (GE) revealed substantially greater heritability over 95% contributed mostly by GE interaction effects. We also observed strong genetic correlations among most studied hazardous smoke traits, with the highest correlation coefficient of 0.84 between carbon monoxide and crotonaldehyde. Based on a published high-density genetic map, a total of 19 novel QTLs were detected for eight traits using a full QTL model, of which 17 QTLs showed significant additive effects, six showed significant additive-by-environment interaction effects, and one pair showed significant epistasis-by-environment interaction effect. Bioinformatics analysis of sequence in QTL region predicted six genes as candidates for four traits, of which Nt21g04598.1, Nt21g04600.1, and Nt21g04601.1 had pleiotropic effects on PHE and TAR.
