As a staple cereal crop in the world, rice feeds more than 50% of the world population. The improvement for rice quality including protein content and kinds of amino acid contents is an important work to meet the demands of a growing population. The genetic analysis on rice indicate that the inheritance of nutrient quality traits is complex, which involve the genetic effects from the triploid endosperm nuclear genes and the diploid maternal plant nuclear genes, being further partitioned into additive and dominance effects, and their genotype × environment (GE) interaction effects. So far, the magnitude and prevalence of interactions between quantitative trait loci (QTL) of the triploid endosperm genome or diploid maternal genome for rice traits are still largely unknown. Therefore, it is necessary to study the genetic main effects and GE interaction effects of the QTL from different genomes across environments. Investigations to identify QTL governing histidine (His) and arginine (Arg) contents of rice were conducted using the newly developed QTL mapping method including endosperm and maternal main effects and their GE interaction effects on quantitative traits of seed in cereal crops. Two backcross populations, which were a set of 241 RILs derived from an elite hybrid cross of ‘Shanyou 63’ crossed with ‘Zhenshan 97’ (BC1F1) or ‘Minghui 63’ (BC2F1), were used in two environments. The results showed that significant differences were found between the two parents for both quantitative quality traits. His and Arg of rice for Zhenshan 97 were higher than those for Minghui 63. The distributions of phenotypic values for His and Arg in BC1F1 (RILs × P1) and BC2F1 (RILs × P2) populations revealed normal distributions approximately. Both backcross populations also showed varying distributions in 1999 and 2000, implying that both amino acid traits were subjected to the modification by environments. A total of ten QTL associated with His content were mapped on chromosomes 1, 2,
