In addition, we showed that A-AM also overestimates the genetic variance in populations under genomic selection, although in our results this was clearly significant only in the scenario with the strongest genomic selection.

The sentences
The estimates of genetic variance by H-AM and A-AM were similar and did not differ significantly for males, whereas for females the H-AM estimate of genetic variance was more than 5 times larger than the A-AM estimate, which represents a highly significant difference (Table 3 ).
