a

Each QTL position is the point on a linkage group where the likelihood ratio reaches the highest value after crossing the significance threshold (α = 0.05).

b

The likelihood-ratio test statistic for H0/HA: *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, and ***P < 0.001.

c

Additive effect of the QTL in hours for CPP and for proportion of one larval instar for SOD. The sign indicates whether the QTL effect is toward the northern (positive) or southern (negative) parent.

d

Dominance effect of the QTL: the sign indicates whether the QTL effect is toward the northern (positive) or southern (negative) parent. The scale is in hours for CPP and instar stages for SOD.

e

Absolute value of the ratio of dominance to additive effects; a QTL is considered completely dominant when |d/a| = 1, partially dominant when |d/a| is between 0 and 1, additive when|d/a| = 0.

f

Proportion of the phenotypic variance explained by the QTL.
