Values from scenarios with moderate selection emphasis on the desired allele (b₂ = 0.5)
^aPercentage of edited zygotes surviving to reproduction age, 100% from k = 1, s = 1, 4% from k = 0.2, s = 0.2 (Table 1)
^bValues from scenario with genomic selection only
^cValues from scenario combining genomic selection and genome editing
^dPercentage change between columns GS and GS + GE
^ePercentage change from GS + GE with 100% efficiency to GS + GE with 4% efficiency
