Abbreviatios: a, additive; d, dominant; LR, likelihood ratio; NA, not applicable; QTL, quantitative trait loci.
^aChromosome position in cM.
^bRegion flanking individual QTL peaks in which LOD scores decline by one LOD.
^cAbsolute value of dominance divided by additive (d/a) gene effect.
^dMode of gene action determined as the absolute value of d/a where additive=0.0–0.20, partial dominance=0.21–0.80, dominance=0.81–1.20 and overdominance=>1.20 (after Stuber et al., 1987; Babu et al., 2006).
