^aThe estimates of heritability for the fruit fly data set taken from Macdonald et al. [34] by the symmetric difference squared (SDS) method and a residual maximum likelihood (REML) method, GCTA.

^bABN = abdominal bristle number and SBN = sternopleural bristle number.

^cThe 95% confidence intervals (CI 95) are constructed based on 1000 bootstrap samples.
