P < 0.05, a2, c2, e2 are the genetic, common environment and unique environment estimates. rg, rc and re are the correlations between the genetic, common environment and unique environment factors influencing the phenotypes. −2LL = minus twice the log likelihood, d.f. = degrees of freedom. AIC: Aikake's information criterion.
