  1. AMaxLOD, the maximum LOD score within approximately 20 cM of the gene.
  2. BH2r represents the polygenic contribution and H2q1 the contribution of major gene (H2r + H2q1 = overall heritability).
  3. CG(b12) is located on chromosome 9 at 11 cM (MaxLOD range: 0 cM-35 cM).
  4. DG(b13) is located on chromosome 9 at 83 cM (MaxLOD range: 65 cM-105 cM).
