Table 3 The estimates of variance components (mean (SD) over 50 replicates) in the scenario S12L2 × 3 (group size = 12, individuals from four sublitters per pen) for trait 1 using univariate model based on group or individual records with different proportion of individuals having genotypes.
Record | Genotype proportion | Analysis | Pen variance (\(\sigma _{c_1}^2\)) | Litter variance (\(\sigma _{l1}^2\)) | Additive genetic variance (\(\sigma _{a1}^2\)) | Residual variance (\(\sigma _{e1}^2\)) |
