Additional file 5: of Genome-wide association multi-locus and multi-variate linear mixed models reveal two linked loci with major effects on partial resistance of apricot to bacterial canker

Linkage disequilibrium (LD) decay over physical position in the apricot core-collection. Pairwise r2 values were computed considering markers in a 1 kb-window. Estimated LD decay according to a non-linear regression is represented for each chromosome. Black curves show non-corrected estimates. Curves of corrected r2 estimates with relatedness K (red), structure Q (orange) and both K and Q (blue) are displayed. r2 mean and standard deviation values are indicated. r2=0.10 threshold are represented with dashed horizontal lines.
