Table 2. Sources of phenotypic variation Breakdown of the phenotypic variance from the independent effect of SNPs (i.e., broad-sense heritability), the equivalent effect of CG methylation state, and environment variance. Variance components were estimated using linear mixed models and have been mean-standardized and multiplied by 100 for readability. Bold components were found to be statistically significant at P < 0.05 using log-likelihood ratio tests between full and reduced models.
