Allelic Effects
In this optional tabulated text file, you may provide allelic effects informations, where each number (e.g. 0.22) describes the effect of one parental allele (e.g. d) at a given QTL (e.g. QTL1) for a particular Trait x Environment combination (e.g. Silk). Note that missing information "-" will be considered as zero.

The data shown above are a subset from the blanc multiparental example.
Note:
- Users can provide this optional file using the Graphical User Interface (GUI) only. See Running OptiMAS GUI and Step1 - Prediction sections.
- First column header has to be QTL,allele.
- Check that decimals are 0.00 and not 0,00.
- The file must be in plain-text, tab-delimited format. So, use tabulation and not spaces between fields.
- QTLs and parental alleles present in this file must match those in the qtlpos and genotype/pedigree files respectively.
