Chromosome.
Most likely cytogenetic location according to draft genome-sequence data.
Empirical p values were derived with the –simulate option featured in the Merlin software by the running of 1000 simulations under the null hypothesis of no linkage, while preserving the original phenotypes, family structures, allele frequencies, linkage disequilibrium (LD) structure, and missing-data pattern.
