Table 2. The top five most significant hits from a genome-wide association study of ACC in (A) Both sexes, (B) Females only and (C) Males only. No SNPs reached the genome-wide significance of P = $1.42\times {10}^{-06}.$ The SNP locus names indicate the position of the SNPs relative to the cattle genome assembly vBTA_vUMD_3.1 (indicated by Chromosome_Position). Linkage groups and map positions (in centiMorgans, cM) are from Johnston et al. (2017). A and B are the reference alleles. Effect B is the estimated effect and standard error of the B allele as estimated in RepeatABEL (Rönnegård et al. 2016). P-values have been corrected for the genomic inflation parameter $\mathit{\lambda }$. Full results are available in Table S3.
