Table 2 . Conditional genotype probabilities of a cow.

The nine possible scenarios for the genotype probabilities of a cow conditional on the genotypes of the animal’s sire and maternal grandsire as well as the frequency of the rare allele A, are shown. The probabilities were calculated by multiplying the respective transmission probabilities of the sire and dam of the cow under consideration.
