a Position of markers with respect to the consensus map was obtained from MaizeGDB (http://www.maizegdb.org)

b Degree of dominance (|d/a|) associated to each marker, as calculated from the data reported in Cockerham and Zeng (1996). Underlined values are higher than the mean of all the |d/a| values calculated for each trait. In case of grain yield, the |d/a| value corresponding to marker npi256 was excluded from the calculation due to its extremely high value.

c Bin and traits are reported in italics when an overdominant QTLs in present study corresponds to a QTL with prominent overdominance (i.e., with |d/a| higher than the mean |d/a| for the trait) in adjacent bin in Cockerham and Zeng (1996).
