Plot of LOD scores (the thin curve for the interval mapping and the thick one for the MQM method) over chromosome 3(3H) for SLA measured at different times in the ‘Prisma’ × ‘Apex’ barley population. The value shown on the peak of the curve is the additive effect, estimated from the MQM method, of the denso locus which has been mapped at 126.4 cM of the chromosome in the marker map used in this study. The horizontal line at a height of 2.5 indicates the LOD threshold for the presence of a QTL.
