QTL, average number of main-effect QTL detected in the estimation set; pG−ES, the proportion of explained genotypic variance (%) of these QTL in the estimation set and in the test set (pG−TS), and the relative bias in the proportion of explained genotypic variance for beet yield (BY) and potassium content (K).
