Features of the QTLs associated with the resistance response to bluegreen aphid (BGA) in the M. truncatula A17×A20 RIL population
| Trait | LOD | LG | Position | PEVa | Response mean | Effectb |
| ADWc | 35.3 | 3 | 8.5 (1.1) | 0.87 (0.04) | 0.015 (0.001) | –0.016(0.001) |
| RPDWd | 6.2 | 3 | 43.2 (7.1) | 0.33 (0.09) | 0.465 (0.012) | –0.12(0.023) |
a
Proportion of explained variability.
b
The estimated effect; a positive value represents the effect of the A17 allele and a negative value represents the effect of the A20 allele.
c
Mean aphid fresh weight (g).
d
Relative reduction of plant dry weight caused by PA.
