aSNP information is displayed in the following format: NCBI GenBank accession number: nucleotide position in the goose reference genome (cds, 5′UTR or 3′UTR) + nucleotide in the reference genome (reference nucleotide) + SNP position in the transcript + mutant nucleotide: amino acid in the goose reference transcript + codon position in the transcript + amino acid mutation or no change.
bNumbers of individuals (Gray| White_1| White_2) for which reliable genotypes could be inferred from the Sanger sequencing data. The percentage in parenthesis is the percentage of the genotype in the number of verified individuals.
