Animal Molecular Breeding 2024, Vol.14, No.4, 288-296 http://animalscipublisher.com/index.php/amb 290 may have higher heritability within breeds, behaviors such as aggression and fearfulness are influenced by a broader range of genetic and environmental factors (Peťková et al., 2024). This indicates that while breed can provide some insights into potential behavioral tendencies, it should not be the sole factor in predicting an individual animal's behavior. Figure 1 (A) Scatter plot of predicted vs. actual phenotype for stranger-directed fear. Actual stranger-directed fear values were recorded by the C-BARQ survey. Predicted phenotype scores were generated by PLS regression on methylation values. The plot specifies the slope of the best-fit line through the plotted points. (B) Scatter plot of predicted vs. actual phenotype for non-social fear. Actual non-social fear values were recorded by the C-BARQ survey. Predicted phenotype scores were generated by PLS regression on methylation values. The plot specifies the slope of the best-fit line through the plotted points. (C) Scatter plot of predicted vs. actual phenotype for attachment/attention-seeking. Actual attachment/attention-seeking values were recorded by the C-BARQ survey. Predicted phenotype scores were generated by PLS regression on methylation values. The plot specifies the slope of the best-fit line through the plotted points. (D) Scatter plot of predicted vs. actual phenotype for dog-directed fear. Actual dog-directed fear values were recorded by the C-BARQ survey. Predicted phenotype scores were generated by PLS regression on methylation values. The plot specifies the slope of the best-fit line through the plotted points. (E) Scatter plot of predicted vs. actual phenotype for energy. Actual energy values were recorded by the C-BARQ survey. Predicted phenotype scores were generated by PLS regression on methylation values. The plot specifies the slope of the best-fit line through the plotted points. (F) Scatter plot of predicted vs. actual phenotype for touch sensitivity. Actual touch sensitivity values were recorded by the C-BARQ survey. Predicted phenotype scores were generated by PLS regression on genotype values. The plot specifies the slope of the best-fit line through the plotted points (Adopted from Sanders et al., 2022)
