  1. Between-trait covariances are below the diagonal (italics), phenotypic trait variances are on the diagonal (bold), with between-trait correlations above the diagonal. Measured traits are weight gain (WG), caecal lesion score (CLS) and serum interleukin 10 (IL-10). Standard errors (± SE) are presented in parentheses
