Note: Results are presented as percentile median ranks. For instance, averaged over Monte Carlo replications, 50% of the time a SNP explaining 0.15% of phenotypic variance is ranked within the 5.6 percentile. A robust measure of variability (Median Absolute Deviation, MAD) is given between brackets
