Correlations of genetic and phenotypic factors with glycogen and carcass traits

Glycogen CW BMS BCS
Glycogen 0.34 ± 0.09 −0.29 ± 0.09 −0.21 ± 0.17 0.69 ± 0.18
CW −0.13 0.56 ± 0.06 0.28 ± 0.10 0.02 ± 0.15
BMS −0.09 0.22 0.26 ± 0.07 –0.31 ± 0.28
BCS −0.17 0.16 −0.42 0.14 ± 0.05

Genetic and phenotypic correlation are shown above and below the diagonal, respectively. Heritability estimates (h2) are on the diagonal (h2 ± standard error). BCS, beef color standard; BMS, beef marbling standard; CW, carcass weight.
