1 HCT, hematocrit; MCH, mean corpuscular hemoglobin; MCHC, mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration; RWD_CV, RBC volume distribution width coefficient of variation. 2 The Ovis aries chromosome number of each significant SNP. 3 The positions of each significant SNP associated with erythrocyte traits in Ovis aries Oar_4.0 assembly. 4 The nearest annotated gene to each significant SNP. The annotated gene database is from https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/assembly/GCF_000298735.2. SNP is designated as in a gene or as distance (bp) from a gene region in Ovis aries Oar_4.0 assembly.
