Change in additive variance when 25 SNPs could be edited for each of the 25 edited animals. Left: Overall change in the additive variance in the L-B cross. Right: Overall change in the additive variance in the L-Pure scenario. The slight rise in additive variance in the L-Pure scenario (right) with gene editing (dashed line) reflects that gene editing can bring back the variants in QTL that were removed from the population
