  2. A blank cell indicates no value as the peak was absent. The raw peak area values from the F1 data in Additional file 1 were first normalised with respect to the sum of the peak areas of the monomorphic pairs m1/m2 and m3/m4 and then the ratio of these normalised values was determined with an expected mean of 1 for the homozygote and 0.5 for the heterozygote. Values for each class show the mean from six F1s with the SD in brackets. Collective means and SD for both the homozygote and heterozygote classes can be seen in the bottom two rows [see Additional file 1 for all data input to this Table].
