Phenotype relationships structure recovered by the IC algorithm within a mixed model approach as described by [16], applied to data on meat-type quail. Edges connecting two traits represent non-null partial correlations, as determined by Highest Posterior Density (HPD) intervals with different contents: Panel (a): 0.7, Panel (b): 0.75, 0.8, 0.85, Panel (c): 0.9, and Panel (d): 0.95; the five traits considered are BW: Birth weight, W35: Weight at 35d, SM: Age at sexual maturity (1st egg), EW: Average egg weight, and NE: Rate of lay (number of eggs)
