Additional file 9: of Genome-wide association multi-locus and multi-variate linear mixed models reveal two linked loci with major effects on partial resistance of apricot to bacterial canker

Individual/multi-locus ANOVA and post-hoc mean comparison tests of all associated markers on G BLUPs from the within-year model. *** shows p-value below 0.001, ** between 0.001 and 0.01,* between 0.01 and 0.05, and ‘ns’ indicates non-significant p-values. Significant results are indicated in red. Results with p-values slightly over the 5% significance level (noted as (.)) are indicated in italic. SS = ratio sum of squares (factor/total variation). For ‘multi-locus’ ANOVA, strict-sense heritability estimates h2 are indicated. Comparison of means between groups were performed for individual locus-ANOVA only on phenotypes associated to a unique locus. AA/BB = homozygotes major/minor allele. AB = heterozygous. Letters indicate means differencing significantly between groups (HSD post-hoc test α = 5%). Group sizes are indicated between brackets for HSD post-hoc tests. (XLSX 15 kb)
