Table 1 Estimates of additive genetic variance \( \left({\sigma}_a^2\right) \), residual variance \( \left({\sigma}_e^2\right) \), phenotypic variance \( \left({\sigma}_p^2\right) \) and heritability (h2) for resistance to A. hydrophila in pacu (P. mesopotamicus), measured as test survival (TS) and time of death (TD). Standard error in parenthesis
