The QTL positions of each significant epistatic effect are specified by the indices of the corresponding chromosomes and the locations on the chromosomes (cM). The estimated sizes of the epistatic effects and the standard deviations of the Markov chains are also shown in the columns of coefficient and S.D., respectively.
