Figure 4

LOD plots from exploratory interval mapping (IM) analysis of tail morphology and sex ratio at four rearing temperatures and of tail reaction norm slope in two temperature intervals, showing overall qualitative similarity for sex ratio and tail phenotypes across temperatures. Horizontal dashed lines indicate significance thresholds for IM computed by permutation. Sex ratio at 13 °C is omitted because there was no variation in sex ratio among RILs at that temperature. QTL significance (Table 3) was then assessed using a more powerful multiple-QTL model selection approach.
