Effect plots showing means and standard errors of the three genotype-classes at significant QTL positions. a) QTL significant under 95% and b) sex and direction-of-cross effects; c) directions-of-cross effects for the three genotypes for lean mass and IMF of the M. quadriceps ; 866 = homozygous BMMI866-allele, 806 = homozygous BMMI806-allele, H = heterozygous animals; 806f x 866m = G3-animals originating from mating a female BMMI806 and a male BMMI866, 866f x 806m G3-animals originating from mating a female BMMI866 and a male BMMI806 in the parental generations.
