Effect of the number of QTL on accuracy of status prediction for the causative mutation. Box plots showing the proportion of correctly and incorrectly predicted and undefined statuses, for scenarios with heritabilities (h2) of 0.4 and 0.7; in both scenarios, 100 QTL were simulated 10 times, of which five were large (L), 20 medium (M) and 75 small (S); the x-axis shows the number of QTL within a distance of 10 Mb of one another.
