Results are for Angus (PV) and multibreed (MV) validation populations using Bayes C π linear (Con) model analysis of continuous phenotypes and Bayes C π linear (L) or threshold (T) model analysis of ordinal categorical phenotypes classified (c) as 2, 3 or 4 categories with heritabilities (h2) of 0.10, 0.25 or 0.50 in the Angus training (PT) population with (n) 1000 or 2250 observations.
