Reduction of model size. Performance of models of varying size (number of markers) for four traits: pubescent leaves, plant height, diastatic power, and α-amylase. The x-axis is the number of features (markers), and the y-axis is the fraction of variance explained, estimated using the zero bootstrap. Vertical grey lines indicate the optimal operating points. Dotted lines are 95% confidence intervals derived using the t-test.
