a, IL allele is not included because it is a very rare allele that has been reported once in a synthetic line by crossing Large White and Meishan breeds [4].

b, This is the reference ratio for Pyro_Splice.

c, This is the reference ratio for qOLA_CNV and Pyro_CNV.

Duplicated copy number = Total copy number – 2.

d, These are numbers of class centroids used for nearest centroid sorting.
