| CSS panel | No. QTLs | “away from” donor | “towards” donor | |
| Overall | “more extreme“ than donor | |||
| A/J | 342 | 7.3% (25) | 92.7% (317) | 1.8% (6) |
| PWD | 122 | 31.3% (38) | 68.9% (84) | 12.3% (15) |

“Towards donor” and “away from” means that a CSS shifted towards or away from the phenotype of the donor strain. “More extreme than donor” means that a CSS not only shifted the phenotype towards but also significantly beyond phenotype of the donor strain. Number of QTLs is provided in parentheses. The analysis was restricted to multigenic traits where the parental strains also differed significantly.
