  1. Accuracy was measured as correlation between true BV and EBV.
  2. aAll: all animals; Group I: the animals that were genotyped in the 30% genotyping scenario; Group II: the animals that were not genotyped in the 30% genotyping scenario.
  3. bValid_R, validation for animals with records; Valid_nR, validation for animals without records.
  4. cG/I ratio, ratio of accuracy for EBV predicted using group records to accuracy of EBV predicted using individual records.
