QTL effects expressed as differences between marker genotype classes for specific traits
Trait | Marker | Genotype | Mean ± SE |
IV | CB75A | aa | 73.26 ± 0.45a |
ab | 69.59 ± 0.36b | ||
C16:0 | CB75A | aa | 27.01 ± 0.40a |
ab | 30.79 ± 0.39b | ||
C16:1 | P4T8 | aa | 0.52 ± 0.02a |
ab | 0.34 ± 0.01b | ||
C18:0 | P4T8 | aa | 1.91 ± 0.04a |
ab | 2.19 ± 0.05b | ||
C18:1 | CB75A | aa | 55.15 ± 0.92a |
ab | 52.50 ± 0.41b |
Means of the genotypes "aa" and "ab" were compared using the independent t test via the SPSS statistical package. The means of the different genotypes for the markers associated with each trait were found to be significantly different
aa: band absent
ab: band present
