a Position of likelihood peak (highest LOD score).

b LOD interval refers to 1.8-LOD support interval, except for Berry skin color, for which a 1.5-LOD support interval was used.

c Additive effect: A positive value means the higher value of the trait due to allele from grandparent2, ‘Seyval’. A negative value means the higher value of the traits due to allele from grandparent1, V. riparia. The units depend on the traits.

d R2 (coefficient of determination): percentage of phenotypic variance explained by the QTL.
