  1. dEBVm and dEBVv: deregressed EBV for mean and residual variance of yearling weight, respectively; dEBVv_r0 and ln_\( {\upsigma}_{\widehat{\mathrm{e}}}^2 \): deregressed EBV for residual variance and log-transformed variance of estimated residuals, respectively, both assuming null genetic correlation between mean and residual variance
  2. N number of observations, SD standard deviation
