^aChromosomes being compared.

^bGenetic map position (cM) within the specified chromosomes. The position is derived from the integrated linkage map (Fig. 1).

^cNumber of marker pairs in the comparison. Only marker pairs with r² estimates in both classes were included.

^dMean r² values of all marker pairs between the two chromosomal regions.

^eP value of a paired t test of the mean r² estimates of processing versus fresh market entries.
