  1. GWA = genome-wide association strategy; QBA = QTL-based association strategy; GBA = gene-based association strategy; Mean = estimated μ in Eq. (1); BL = best line that achieved the highest genetic value among the inbred lines; SL = the superior line with the potential highest genetic value in all designed homozygous lines.
