Each QTL is designated as CENT followed by its chromosome number and an extension to indicate whether it is the first or second QTL on that chromosome. Specific locations of the QTL are given by the map location (cM) and genome coordinate (in Mp) of the nearest SNP marker.
The significance test is given as the negative log of the probability (LPR) and values that are significant at the 5% chromosome-wise level are marked with an ‘^*’, whereas the values significant at the genome-wise level are marked with a ‘^†’. Also shown is the percentage contribution (%) of each QTL to the total variance of centroid size, and its standardized additive (a), dominance (d), and imprinting (i) effects (^*P<0.05 in tests using genome point-wise threshold values).
