Chr, Chromosome number; pGWAS, GWAS using phenotype; eGWAS, GWAS using EBVs; PWW, Progeny Weaning Weight; TLWW, Total Litter Weight at Weaning; LMWW, Litter Mean Weight at Weaning; MAF, Minor allele frequency. P-values are presented only for the first trait in the Trait(s) column. P-values are adjusted based on the Genomic Control value. Genes with boldface indicate that significant SNPs are located within the gene. SNPs with boldface are significantly associated with genes but otherwise are suggestive SNPs. The regression coefficient of each SNP is provided in Supplementary Table 15.
