Accuracy and bias of genomic predictions in Holstein (N = 1223), Jersey (N = 431) and crossbred (N = 790) cows when using the multi-breed reference set (Holstein and Jersey bulls; N = 4175). The selected ‘top SNPs’ used in the BayesRC were from the Holstein cow discovery set (N = 20,623) based on the single-trait GWAS cut-off of [− log10(p-value) ≥ 2]. The traits analysed are heat tolerance milk (HTMYslope), fat (HTFYslope), and protein (HTPYslope) yield slopes. Vertical lines represent the standard errors calculated from two random validation subsets
