  2. b: Phenocopy rate refers to the percentage of q alleles in the last generation that have given the same phenotype as the Q allele
  3. (1) : single nucleotide polymorphism
  4. (2) : microsatellite
  5. Mean square errors (MSEs) in cM2 of quantitative trait locus (QTL) location estimates obtained by the T2 and HAPim methods for various phenocopy rate values, t = 100, N = 400, and a marker spacing of 0.25 cM.
