Predictive ability for birth weight (BW), weaning weight (WW), and post-weaning gain (PWG) of Angus cattle. Predictive ability is the correlation between genomic estimated breeding values based on the Algorithm of Proven and Young inverse of the genomic relationship matrix and phenotypes adjusted for fixed effects. The number of core animals is defined as the number of eigenvalues that explain 90, 95, 98, and 99% of the original variation; values for 100% correspond to the regular inverse of the genomic relationship matrix
