Identification of the epistatic contribution to trait variance. a Significant epistasis for flowering time traits. Other traits are shown in Additional file 3: Fig. S9. b Heritability explained by significant epistasis for different traits with different criteria averaged between 15.3% (P = 1E−12) and 4.8% (P = 1E−15). c Different epistatic combinations of loci and ratios for identified epiQTL: SS-1, two interacting loci linked with two sQTL affecting the same trait; SS-2, two interacting loci linked with two sQTL affecting different traits; SN, one of two interacting loci linked with a sQTL; NN, neither of two interacting loci linked with any measured sQTL. d Fraction of recombinants (combinations from different parents) encompassing interacting pairs of loci between epiQTL and random distal pairs
