Fig. 3.
Δ(SNP-index) graph of MF (male fertile) and MS (male sterile) pool from the bulked segregant analysis (BSA). The X-axis represents the chromosome position. The Y-axis represents the Δ(SNP-index) value. The spots represent Δ(SNP-index) values calculated by the formula: [Δ(SNP-index) = SNP-index_Largest-SNP-index_Smallest]. The black line corresponds to the fitted value of the Δ(SNP-index) and the red line represents the confidence value (99%). Two candidate regions (region 1 166,710–564,531, size 397 Kb; and region 2 1,954,776–2,371,279, size 416 Kb) above the confidence value were identified on cucumber chromosome 3
