Quantitative trait loci associated with body condition factor in Astyanax mexicanus. A Location of markers (horizontal lines) on linkage group 2 indicating the peak position and bayes credible interval (box and whiskers) for QTL associated with body condition factor (fish weight (g) × 100/fish length (cm)3). B, C Average body condition factor (± 1SE) of adult F2 surface/Pachón hybrid females and males of the indicated linkage group 2 peak marker genotype (S = surface allele, C = cave allele, fish fed ad libitum). D, E Average body condition factor (± 1SE) of adult F2 surface/Pachón hybrid females and males of the indicated linkage group 2 peak marker genotype (S = surface allele, C = cave allele, fish fed restricted diet for 4 months). F Location of markers (horizontal lines) on linkage group 6 indicating the peak position and bayes credible interval (box and whiskers) for sex-dependent QTL associated with body condition factor after 4 months on a nutrient restricted diet. G, H Average body condition factor (± 1SE) of adult F2 surface/Pachón hybrid females and males of the indicated linkage group 6 peak marker genotype (S = surface allele, C = cave allele, fish fed restricted diet for 4 months)
