Type I error rates, power, and coverage are percentages; estimates and standard errors are averages. Type I error rates are confidence intervals based on 500 simulations under the null hypothesis; other table entries are based on 100 simulations under the alternative hypothesis. We count successful coverage when the equivalent one-LOD drop (4.6 LRT units) interval around a significant map point includes the QTL. The QTL is located at the midpoint of points 5 and 6. Parameter p1 is the reduced-dimension polygenic background parameter; η, the grand mean; ɛi, the QTL effect on strain i; and , the residual covariance. The Mendel estimates have average standard errors in parentheses. NA, not applicable.
