yielded similar results (not shown), indicating that the difference in power is not primarily a function of the marker allele frequencies. Note that the marker-specific heritability is proportional to the QTL effect size, where the constant of proportionality is equal to the square of the correlation (i.e., LD) between the marker and the trait locus; therefore, the results obtained for the complete LD case should be directly relevant to the case of incomplete LD.
