Figure 1

True values (grey diamonds) and posterior means of marker effects (vertical bars) averaged over 50 replicated data sets under the EBL (top) and the SAP approach (bottom) plotted against the marker indices, for simulations based on the barley marker data. The dashed horizontal lines indicate the permutation-based QTL significance thresholds. EBL, extended Bayesian LASSO; QTL, quantitative trait locus; SASP, shape-adaptive shrinkage prior.
