- (a) given in units of phenotypic standard deviations (sd(Y)=2.10).
- (b) The true overall heritability of the trait is 0.30 [19].
- Hyper-parameter p0 defines the prior probability that the effect size lies in the interval of the spike, (−b,b). N
Q
is a summary statistic for the number of QTL (see text for details), α the common intercept in the regression, the variance component of the polygenic terms, σ2 the residual variance, and the part of the heritability due to marker effects.
