Table 2. Allelic states observed in each GWAS model, resulting from a combination of SNP alleles, their ancestry and the genetic background in which they are observed.

SNP Ancestry Genetic background Allelic states
M1 {0, 1} - - {0, 1}
M2 {0, 1} {D, F}a - {0D, 1D, 0F, 1F}
M3 {0, 1} {D, F} {D, A, F} {0DD, 1DD, 0DA, 1DA, 0FA, 1FA, 0FF, 1FF}

0: SNP reference allele

1: SNP alternative allele

D: Dent ancestry or genetic background

F: Flint ancestry or genetic background

A: Admixed genetic background
