GWABLUP: genome-wide association assisted best linear unbiased prediction of genetic values

Table 3 Reliabilities of genomic predictions of validation cows relative to those of GBLUP and their statistically significant differences between the methods

	Reliability relative to GBLUP
	Milk	Fat	Protein	SCC
GBLUP	1.00^a	1.00^a	1.00^a	1.00^a
GBLUP(topSNPs)	1.05^b	1.04^b	1.04^b	1.00^a
GWABLUP	1.10^c	1.06^b	1.07^c	1.01^a
BayesGC	1.05^b	1.04^b	1.03^b	1.01^a

The \(cor{\left({\mathbf{y}}_{{\varvec{v}}},{\widehat{\mathbf{g}}}_{{\varvec{v}}}\right)}^{2}\) of GBLUP were 0.209, 0.186, 0.196, and 0.178 for milk, fat, and protein and SCC, respectively
Different letters in the superscripts denote statistically significant differences (P < 0.05)
