¹Partial: national evaluations (scenario NAT) where recorded phenotypes are available only at the country level. whole: international evaluations (scenario CUR and REF) providing new information from other countries. Similarly, NONE is a partial evaluation relative to scenarios CUR and REF.

²Domestic: animals retained in the national evaluations for scenario NAT.

³Scenario: NAT = national single-trait evaluations, NONE = both r_{dm_WC} and r_{dm_BC} set to 0, CUR = r_{dm_WC} used in the evaluation, and r_{dm_BC} set to 0, REF = both r_{dm_WC} and r_{dm_BC} used in the evaluation. With r_{dm_WC} = within-country direct-maternal genetic correlations, and r_{dm_BC} = between-country direct-maternal genetic correlations.
