Power simulations on the MAGIC maize. Average power values for 400 independent runs (100 for each of MAF 0.125, 0.25, 0.375, and 0.5) are given as a function of the variance explained by one of 20 QTL simulated with effects following a geometric series. Panel a reports the case with h 2= 0.4, panel b with h 2= 0.7. Power is influenced by sample size
