Means and standard errors of regression coefficients (b±se) and proportions ( or ) of statistical tests for significance of the regression coefficients from three methods.

and are the coefficients of LD between the marker and QTL in the simulated mixed population before and after correction for population structure respectively.apredicted when all individuals were allocated to their correct subpopulations;bpredicted when half of all individuals were correctly allocated to their subpopulations but other half were randomly allocated to either of the two subpopulations. The predicted values were estimated from theoretical analysis, while the simulated values were estimated from the simulation studies.
