Table 3 QTLs detected by multiple interval mapping in E. urophylla (E.u.) and E. grandis (E.g.) for i) mechanical properties; longitudinal growth strain (LGS) and modulus of elasticity (Ep E30, and E2i), ii) technological properties; splitting index (SId, SIs and SIm), iii) Physical properties (Pil, μD), iv) chemical properties; lignin content (Klas), monomeric composition (S, G, S/G), extractive contents (Ext), phenolic content (Poly) and flavanol content (Fla), and v) fibre properties; fibre weighted length (FWL) and fibre curl index (Curl), vi) growth, total height and circumference (1.3 m) at 59 months (Ht59, Cir59)

  1. QTLs location is given in cM from the top marker of the linkage group. Values of the maximum LOD-score and probability associated to the 1-QTL (H1 vs H0) or 2-QTL (H2 vs H0 and H2 vs H1) models are given for each QTL after 1,000 permutations. Difference between the two QTL allele effects (d1 and d2) also expressed in phenotypic standard deviations (Δ1 and Δ2). The percentage of phenotypic variation explained for each QTL (PEV) and the total PEV are also provided.
