aType I results at three different significance levels were determined from the Replicates 1 to 10 of SNPs on all chromosomes except 6, 11, and 18.

bPower is determined as the fraction of replicates showing a significant result (p < 0.05/9187) in a 1-Mb region around SNP6_153 on chromosome 6, SNP11_389 on chromosome 11, and SNP18_269 on chromosome 18.
