A hybrid method for the imputation of genomic data in livestock populations

Table 1 Description of the simulated marker panels

Panel code	Panel design	Number of markers per chromosome	Number of markers across the genome
H10k	High-density	10,000	300,000
H2k	High-density	2000	60,000
L2k	80%	2000	60,000
L600^a	94/70%	600	18,000
L300^a	97/85%	300	9000
L30^a	99.7/98.3%	30	900
L15^a	99.8/99.2%	15	450

Low-density panels were simulated by randomly masking the genotype information of the H10k and H2k high-density panels. 15, 30, 300, 600, and 2000 markers per chromosome were selected at random from both H10k and H2k high-density panels, to simulate densities equivalent to 450, 900, 9000, 18,000 and 60,000 markers per 30 chromosome genome
^aValues correspond to percentage of markers masked from the H10k and H2k high-density panels, respectively
