Chr: maize chromosome; SNP_ID indicates the chromosome followed by the physical position in bp; ZmMATE1 is the sequence-tagged site marker developed within ZmMATE1.
The position of each QTL was determined in Mbp (Mega base pairs) as the highest -log₁₀ (P-value).
R_P²(%) is the percentage of the phenotypic variance explained by each QTL and R_T²(%) is the percentage of the phenotypic variance explained by the full model, including all significant QTLs.
CI is the 95% confidence interval of the QTL position.
