Table 1 Variance components and broad-sense heritability (H2) of the timing of flowering (TOF) and the spring yield (SY) for two locations

From: QTL mapping of flowering time and biomass yield in tetraploid alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.)

  1. The two locations included the J. Phil Campbell Sr. Research and Education Center (JPC) in Watkinsville and the Georgia Mountain Research and Education Center (BVL) in Blairsville
  2. NA = data not available or available for only one environment
  3. H2 = Broad-sense heritability, σ2g = Genotypic variance, σ2r = Between block variance, σ2ε = Variance component of residual error, TOF Timing of flowering, SY Spring yield
  4. *P < 0.05, ** P < 0.001
  5. ЖSuffix on traits: 015, 017 and 018 indicate the year of data collection
