Negative QTLs are colored red and positive QTLs are colored blue. Darker coloration reflects QTLs at P < 0.01, and lighter coloration reflects QTLs at P < 0.05 (in both years with P values derived from t test). Cells labeled with the letter S represent QTLs overlapping with structural genes. Only ILs considered to harbor a QTL or variables that resulted in traits identified are depicted here. Pathway abbreviations are as follows: AAM, amino acid metabolism; GGP, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis; SSM, Suc and starch metabolism; TCA, tricarboxylic acid cycle. All QTLs are defined with reference to ILs that were available for this study. The two QTLs for TPI in IL-1-2 and IL-1-3 and the two QTLs for PPi-PFK in IL-2-4 and IL-2-5 might each be due to a single QTL in the region of overlap between the adjacent ILs.
