Figure 2.

Heritability estimates and confidence intervals for two flowering traits from Atwell et al. (2010) (LDV and LD) and four traits from new experiments. Three estimators were used: the ANOVA-based estimator of broad-sense heritability (${\widehat{H}}^2$, green), the marker-based estimator using individual plant data (${\widehat{h}}_r^2$, blue) and the marker-based estimator using genotypic means (${\widehat{h}}_m^2$, brown). Traits from different experiments are separated by the black horizontal lines. Trait abbreviations are given in Table 1. Confidence intervals associated with the marker-based estimates are constructed using the logarithmic transformation described in Materials and Methods.
