Summary of results of a multinomial logistic regression of the effects of genome-wide heterozygosity and introgression (as two level factors) on the likelihood of death and the likelihood of clinical illness

Phenotype
Dead calves (n = 68)
Ill calves (n = 243)
Factors Estimate (SE) OR (95% CI) P -value Estimate (SE) OR (95% CI) P -value
Low heterozygosity
1.13 (0.27)
9.5 (3.5-27.9)
< 0.001
0.61 (0.26)
3.4 (1.2-9.3)
0.018
Introgressed 0.16 (0.19) 1.4 (0.7-2.9) 0.39 0.43 (0.12) 2.4 (1.5-3.8) < 0.001

Cut-offs for high/low heterozygosity and introgressed/non-introgressed are defined in Methods. Healthy calves were the reference category. CI = confidence interval. SE = standard error. OR = odds ratio. P-values in bold type are statistically significant.
