  1. Association results for the g.93945738C > T variant with milk composition phenotypes are shown, with the number of individuals used for each analysis indicated in the ‘Animal N’ column. Parameter estimates (daily values) are displayed with standard errors using units of grams for yield traits and litres for milk volume; parameter-adjusted means are given in the same units. The percentage of phenotypic and genetic variance explained by the g.93945738C > T SNP in each model is also indicated, with phenotype association P-values shown in the right-most column.
