Stable QTLs for seven seed and berry-related traits in three grapevine mapping populations (consensus maps). The confidence intervals (CIs) shown are for the inter-year BLUPs of the traits for which a QTL overlapping with this CI was also found in at least two different years. For each CI, the trait abbreviation is followed by the maximum LOD value and the percentage of total variance explained by the QTL. Overlapping confidence intervals for a given trait mean that several LOD peaks were present. Distances are in Kosambi cM. Berry-related traits are in purple and seed-related traits in brown. MBW: mean berry weight; MSN: mean seed number; TSFW: total seed fresh weight; MSFW: mean seed fresh weight; %SDM: seed dry matter percentage; RESN: residual berry weight unexplained by seed number; RESFW: residual berry weight unexplained by total seed fresh weight.
