In the Statistical analysis subsection of Materials and Methods, there is an error in the fifth sentence of seventh paragraph. The correct sentence is: Repeatability (r) = σ2a + σ2c / σ2p, where σ2a is the direct additive genetic variance, σ2c is the permanent environmental variance and σ2p is phenotypic variance.
