  1. Numbers between brackets are the standard errors of the corresponding parameters
  2. \(r_{{\alpha P_{L} ,\alpha P_{Y} }}\) is the correlation of allele substitution effects for purebred performance between the Landrace and Yorkshire breeds; \(r_{{\alpha C_{L} , \alpha C_{Y} }}\) is the correlation of allele substitution effects for crossbred performance between the Landrace and Yorkshire breeds. For Gen_AM, \(r_{{\alpha C_{L} , \alpha C_{Y} }}\) is equal to 1 by definition
