  1. Values are in percentages. Values in the same column with different superscript letters are significantly different (P < 0.05) while values is the same column that share a superscript letter are not significantly different
  2. \({\Delta F}_{hom}\): rate of increase of average \({F}_{hom}\) at neutral, QTL and marker loci; \({\Delta F}_{drift}\): rate of increase of average \({F}_{drift}\) at neutral, QTL and marker loci; \({F}_{hom}-{F}_{drift}\): difference between \({F}_{hom}\) and \({F}_{drift}\) at neutral, QTL and marker loci in the last generation of the simulation
