Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling yield and yield components were identified by using a doubled haploid (DH) population of 120 lines from a sub-specific cross between ‘Samgang’ (Indica) and ‘Nagdong’ (Japonica). Main effects, epistatic effects, their environment interactions of QTLs were analyzed via mixed linear model approach across different environments. A total of 17 putative QTLs were identified on 8 chromosomes and five QTLs were detected over two years. 7 QTLs of main effects and 23 epistatic interactions were observed for five traits. Epistatic interactions played an important role in controlling the expression of yield related traits. The epistatic effects explained higher percentages of phenotype variation for panicles per plant, seed set percentage and yield. Significant QTL×environment (QE) interactions effects were identified for all traits, including 5 main effect QTLs. However, the present study failed to identify the significant interactions between epistatic loci containing main effect QTLs and the environment. The information provided in the present study could be used in the marker-assisted selection to enhance selection efficiency and to improve yield in rice.
