¹Positional candidate genes
²Ensembl gene ID based on Galgal5 (Ensembl Genes 93 Database)
³Indicates that the positional candidate gene was annotated within a selection signature region [33]
⁴Indicates that this positional candidate gene was annotated within a haplotype block that harbor the SNP with the highest model frequency
