a, b, c, Means in the same row with different superscripts indicate significant difference (p < 0.05). BW: body weight; WH: wither height; CW: chest width; RL: rump length; RW: rump height; RW: rump width; BL: body length; CBP: perimeter of cannon bone perimeter; PG: paunch girth; CG: chest girth; BOD: body depth; SE: standard errors; CV: coefficient of variation; Ns: non-significant (p > 0.05; ***p ≤ 0.001; **p ≤ 0.01; *p ≤ 0.05).
