Maximum likelihood heritability estimates from linkage models: hq2 is the QTL-specific heritability, i.e., the proportion of the residual phenotypic variance due to the effect of the QTL.

Location in centimorgans (cM) from pter-most marker locus in the human genetic linkage map for that chromosome.
