QTL detected in the mapping population.

For each trait the genome-wide threshold (GW) at p = 0.05 (as determined from 1,000 permutations) is indicated. The marker mapping closest to each QTL and which parental allele contributed positively to the trait are indicated, along with its confidence interval (CI), the estimated LODs at the QTL peak (LOD), the PV explained and the additive (A)/dominance (D) contribution. Asterisks indicate QTL showing epistatic interactions.
