BCI, Bayes confidence interval; EV, estimated phenotypic variance explained; a, additive effect; d, dominance effect; Action, mode of action determined as d/a where additive = 0.0–0.20, partial dominance = 0.21–0.80, dominance = 0.81–1.20, and overdominance = >1.20 (after Stuber et al. 1987; Babu et al. 2006); Degree, d/a.
