Table 2 Variance components used for genomic prediction: additive genetic \(\left( {\sigma_{{{\text{u}}_{{\text{p}}} }}^{2} } \right)\), non-genetic maternal permanent environment \(\left( {\sigma_{{\text{c}}}^{2} } \right)\), residual \(\left( {\sigma_{{\text{e}}}^{2} } \right)\), and the estimated heritability \(\left( {h^{2} } \right)\)

From: Validation with single-step SNPBLUP shows that evaluations can continue using a single mean of genotyped individuals, even with multiple breeds
