VG: variance of general combining ability (GCA); VS: variance of specific combining ability (SCA); Vgf: contribution ratio of the female GCA variance to the total variance; Vgm: contribution ratio of the male GCA variance to the total variance; Vgfm: contribution ratio of the SCA variance to the total variance; h2 b: broad sense heritability; h2 n: narrow sense heritability.
