[2]var(g)=∑ivar(xi)bi2+∑i∑j(i≠j)cov(xi,xj)bibj with the first component being the expected value of additive genetic variance under linkage equilibrium (LE) and second component being the deviation from the expected value could be caused by linkage disequilibrium (LD), population structure or selection27.
