Relationship between observed prediction accuracy and heritability estimates. a Correlation between relative increase in prediction accuracy due to haplotypes and relative haplotype epistasis heritability. b Correlation between prediction accuracy of the best haplotype model and total heritability that can be haplotype heritability only or a combination of haplotype and SNP heritabilities. c Correlation between prediction accuracy of the SNP model with additive and dominance values and the SNP total heritability as a summation of additive and dominance heritabilities. d Correlation between prediction accuracy of the SNP model with additive values and SNP additive heritability.
