Comparison of the effects of four haplotypes on carcass length. The haplotypes are composed of the top seven SNPs that were most significantly associated with carcass length, specifically (in order from 1 to 7), rs342071386, rs333646524, rs345818757, rs323371124, rs336843722, rs343796635, and rs320706814. The linkage disequilibrium (r²) of the second-most significant SNP, #1, rs342071386, with other SNPs (including the most significant SNP, #7, rs320706814) are presented. Two effect-size categories (with favorable, Q, or unfavorable, q, effects on carcass length), with haplotype frequencies in parentheses
