Chr: maize chromosome; SNP_ID indicates the chromosome followed by the physical position in bp; ZmMATE1 is the sequence-tagged site marker developed within ZmMATE1.

The position of each QTL was determined in Mbp (Mega base pairs) as the highest -log10 (P-value).

R P 2(%) is the percentage of the phenotypic variance explained by each QTL and R T 2(%) is the percentage of the phenotypic variance explained by the full model, including all significant QTLs.

CI is the 95% confidence interval of the QTL position.
