  2. Mean square errors (MSEs) in cM2 of quantitative trait locus (QTL) location estimates obtained by the T2 and HAPim methods for various values of time t since initial LD creation. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) marker spacing was 0.125 cM, N = 400, and the initial association was complete.
