Table 3.

Correlations of allele substitution effects for purebred and crossbred performance between Landrace and Yorkshire breeds

Scenario rαPL,αPY rαCL,αCY
Nogen
Gen_AM 0.14 (0.22) 1
Gen_ADM 0.19 (0.24) 0.98 (0.02)

Numbers between brackets are the standard errors of the corresponding parameters

rαPL,αPY is the correlation of allele substitution effects for purebred performance between the Landrace and Yorkshire breeds; rαCL,αCY is the correlation of allele substitution effects for crossbred performance between the Landrace and Yorkshire breeds. For Gen_AM, rαCL,αCY is equal to 1 by definition
