Reanalyses of Protas et al. (2007) revealed several regions of the genome are associated with opposite phenotypic effects for eye size and melanophore number. Four genomic regions localized to Pachón-based linkage groups (“LGP”) 6, 7, 14 and 25 harbor opposite phenotypic effects for vision and pigmentation (black font; a). QTL indicated in grey represent loci with congruent phenotypic effects (i.e. reductions in vision and pigmentation; (a). Three markers on LGP7 (204C, 108C, 135A) associated with one eye size and four pigmentation traits (MelA, MelD, MelE) demonstrate opposite phenotypic effects (b). Two markers on LGP14 (133B, 16C) associated with one lens size (LensL) and one pigmentation trait (MelA) demonstrate opposite phenotypic effects (c). One marker on LGP25 (214C) associated with one lens size (LensL) and one pigmentation trait (MelA) demonstrate opposite phenotypic effects (d). Two markers on LGP6 (NYU27, 119C) associated with one lens size (LensE) and one pigmentation trait (MelD) demonstrate opposite phenotypic effects (e). Data reanalyzed from Protas et al. [10]
