Additive effect: Positive additivity indicates that the QTL alleles from “AC2212” and “3501” in LA and FC RILs, respectively, originating increase the phenotype values, whereas negative additivity indicates that the QTL alleles originating from “Long Sweet” and “3509” in LA and FC RILs, respectively increase the phenotype values. ^aμg/g DW is the unit of an additive effect in LA RILs. ^bμg/g DW is the unit of an additive effect in FC RILs.
