There was also a marginally non-significant, negative additive genetic covariance between ELF and the slope term for offspring birth weight ( Χ 1 2 =3.54; p =0.07; table 1 a ).
There was also a marginally non-significant, negative additive genetic covariance between ELF and the slope term for offspring birth weight ( Χ 1 2 =3.54; p =0.07; table 1 a ).
The genetic correlation between ELF and the age slope for offspring birth weight remained negative and was almost identical in magnitude to correlation in the full model ( r A =−0.55) but, presumably owing to the substantially reduced sample size and therefore power in the restricted model, no longer approached significance ( Χ 1 2 =1.15; p =0.28; table 1 b ).
