Comparison of GRM and NCD. Each point represents a pair of BB (BB; a) and TC cows (TC; b). We have plotted the parameter space showing all pairs except the self–self pairs. An outlier animal with an unusual Zebu contribution was identified by NCD but not by GRM for both populations (red dots). Half-sibs in a pedigree form a main cluster around the expected GRM of 0.25
