The graphs show the QTL calculated in this study (solid line) against the QTL calculated in previous studies (dotted lines). The x-axis indicates the chromosome and the y-axis shows the position on the chromosome in centimorgans. Different colored lines and points designate the different phenotypes. The shape and size of the point shows the LOD score and contributed variance (%) respectively. The length of the line indicates the 95 % confidence interval as determined from the LOD curves. The top graph shows all overlapping QTL related to bone and growth while the bottom shows just the ones relevant for mechanical properties
