Percentage of shallow and deep root mass in QTL lines contrasting for the presence of qDTY3.2 in the field. Root mass density data measured in 15-cm soil segments from 0 to 60 cm and reported by Dixit et al. (2015a) were re-analyzed to calculate the percentage of shallow (0–15 cm; a) and deep (45–60 cm; b) roots in 37 lines with the qDTY3.2 introgression (+ qDTY3.2) and 18 lines without the qDTY3.2 introgression (− qDTY3.2). Bars indicate mean values ± se and p-values indicate differences between QTL groups
