Path analysis of causal relationship among Hd18 (H18), SD1, GS3, OsTB1 (OTB), and qLTG3-1 (qLT) alleles to explain quality-related traits. A: protein content, B: amylose content, C: whiteness, D: head rice, E: opaque rice, F: damaged rice, G: broken rice, H: colored rice, I: cracked rice. Single-headed continous arrows represent linear dependencis (direct effects) calculated as standardized regression coefficients, while double-headed arros indicate correlation coefficients between each alleles. Blue and red arrows indicate positive and negative effects, respectively. The arrow line thickness represents the proportion of the effect. NS, *, and ** indicate no significant, significant at 5 and 1% probability level, respectively.
