  1. aGamete ids are defined by the id of the individual with the subscript p or m, which denote the paternal or maternal origin, respectively
  2. bGametes are classified as base gametes (BH) when inherited by an ungenotyped parent or replicates of BH (RH) when inherited by a genotyped parent
  3. cGametes 3m and 4m are classified as BH since the dams of animals 3 and 4 were not genotyped; 3m and 4m will also be treated as RH (i.e. replicates of themselves) since they are associated to phenotypes
