Table 4.

The means and standard errors of the MLEs of three types of parameters (Ψu, Ψv, πj|i) defining the likelihood obtained from 200 simulation replicates for QTL mapping of biological rhythms defined by a system of ODE (1). The rhythmic phenotypic traits were simulated at 25 time points for a heritability of 0.1.
