The breakdown of shared significant SNPs detected for selected traits with the other traits on each chromosome. As highlighted in red dashed boxes, selected milk yield raw trait (a), principal component 18 (b) and Cholesky transformed fat yield (c) had the largest numbers of significant (p s) SNPs detected by single-trait GWAS for RT, PC and CT, respectively (Table 1). The number of shared SNPs for the each other trait (non-selected) were determined at the p s < 0.05 level (see methods). Significances of the enrichment of chromosomes containing the amount of significant SNPs detected for selected traits were based on the Fisher’s exact test (p f). The RT associated with the top factor loading value of each PC was shown in the parentheses (Supplementary Table S2).
