Figure 2

The profile of the log-likelihood ratios ( LR ) between the full model (there is a QTL) and reduced (there is no QTL) model for plant height growth trajectories across the genome in soybeans planted in years 2005 and 2006. The genomic position corresponding to the peak of the curve is the maximum likelihood estimate of the QTL localization. The vertical broken lines indicate the positions of markers on this chromosome shown beneath. The map distances (in centiMorgan) between two markers are calculated using the Haldane mapping function. The thresholds for acclaiming the genome-wide existence of a QTL are obtained from 100 permutation tests.
