Table 1 Summary of scenarios with respect to number of QTL per chromosome with a time horizon of 15 generations

From: Upweighting rare favourable alleles increases long-term genetic gain in genomic selection programs

  1. The scenarios under time horizon of 40 (100QTL_TH40, 400QTL_TH40 and 2000QTL_TH40) have the same mean and standard errors of total QTL effects as the scenarios with the same number of QTL under time horizon of 15.
