Phenotype-specific genetic polymorphisms within S. pneumoniae resistance QTLs.

The number of phenotype-associated polymorphisms within the coding region of the QTLs and their consequences. The presented number of SNPs includes the SNPs identified in the EMMA mapping and in the analyses of the full-length sequences within the disease QTLs. No of SNPs– number of phenotype-associated SNPs identified within the gene; Chrom – chromosome, non-synon – SNP causing amino acid change, synon – SNP causing silent mutation, intron – SNP within intron, splicing – SNP within splicing site of the gene. EMMA – indicates whether the genome-wide significant SNPs (p-value−8) were identified within the gene during the EMMA mapping: Y-yes, N-no.
