Win<strong>QTL</strong>Cart <strong>Windows</strong> & Menus 23<br />

Legend on right. Check to show the legends to the right of the graphs. Uncheck to show the legends<br />

above the graphs.<br />

Show trace hairs. By default, Win<strong>QTL</strong>Cart will not show X and Y cross hairs when you select use the<br />

Trace Position command. Check this box if you do want to see the cross hairs.<br />

Number of scale lines for X axis. Specify the number of hash marks spread across the cM scale of<br />

the graph.<br />

Number of scale lines for Y (LOD) axis. Specify the number of hash marks spread along the LOD<br />

scale.<br />

Number of scale lines for Y (effect) axis. Specify the number of hash marks spread along the effect<br />

scale of the graph.<br />

Space between two chromosomes. Specify a distance as a percentage of the graph scale to<br />

separate the chromosomes in the graph. (Put in about 5 or 10 to see the effect.)<br />

Threshold value for traits. Select a trait from the drop down list and enter a number to set as that<br />

trait's threshold value. Click the Set all traits with this value button to impose a consistent threshold on<br />

all displayed traits.<br />

Trait color and line styles. Select a trait from the drop down list. Press the Color button to select its<br />

color; select a Line Style from the drop down list to further differentiate it from other traits in the display.<br />

Maximum LR value in graph. Check and input a value to limit the max LR (not LOD) value into the<br />

value for the LOD / LR curve line, default value is max LR value in the selected chromosomes and traits.<br />

Minimum LR value in graph. Check and input a value to set the minimum LR (not LOD) value into the<br />

value at Y-axis, default value is 8.0.<br />

Marker label font size. To adjust marker label's font size after selecting showing marker label in LOD /<br />

LR window.<br />

Setting a test hypothesis<br />

Select Setting>Test Hypothesis to play with the results further by trying out different LOD / LR and<br />

effects (additive, dominant, R2, TR2, S) settings on the displayed results.<br />

Note: This option is only for crosses with three kinds of genotype such as SF2.
