Table 4.

Variance explained by top300 intervals and random300 intervals

intervals	milk	fat	prot	fat%	prot%	fert
top300	85%	82%	74%	99%	99%	93%
random300	3%	3%	3%	3%	2%	1%

Top300 were the 300 non-overlapping 250 kb windows that explained the most variance for each trait, random300 were randomly selected non-overlapping 250 kb windows, chr chromosome, milk milk yield, fat fat yield, prot protein yield, fat% fat percentage, prot% protein percentage, fert fertility, variance shows as percentage of the sum of the variance explained by the non-overlapping intervals that explained the most variance
