The percentage values indicate the percentage of the variation in each trait that was linked to the markers.
Negative and positive effects indicate donors and recurrent parents contributing favourable QTL alleles, respectively.
The markers used are designated 126G1R and 180G1R which were BAC end markers.
* and **, significant effect at P = 0·05 and 0·01, respectively.
