  1. Models with marker covariates centered (CC), marker covariates not centered with μ g in the model (CN μ g ), and marker covariates not centered without μ g (CN) in the model. The QTL effects were sampled from a normal distribution with either mean μ α = 0 or mean μ α = 0.2. The analyses were based on either 100 or 10 000 marker genotypes, including the QTL.
