1Sire/sire: validation set composed of the 202 younger sires; sire/dam: validation set composed of 1247 dams; the same reference set of 793 sires was used in both cases; 2Maxr: maximum genomic relationship between each animal in the validation set and all the animals in the reference set; Mean10: average of the top 10 genomic relationships between each animal in the validation set and all the animals in the reference set.
