The final analysis sample for constructing EFW standards consisted of 901 measurements from 311 women, of whom 280 had three and 30 had two EFW measures.
The final analysis sample for constructing AC standards consisted of 920 measurements from 313 women, of whom 294 had three and 19 had two ultrasound scans other than the GA dating scan.
All samples used for constructing the ddRAD libraries were also genotyped for SNP markers Oni23063 and Oni28137 within the major sex determining region on LG 1 (NCBI dbSNP accession rs397507167 and rs397507165 respectively) previously described in Palaiokostas et al. [ 9].
The pheromone gland mRNA samples used for constructing the cDNA library were non-normalized and non-amplified by PCR, so the reads in the sequencing dataset most likely represent the relative abundance of each assembled transcript in the pheromone gland as summarized in Table 2.
Among 6,197 samples, 848 samples were used for constructing the reference panel, and the remaining 5,349 samples were used for genotype panels.
Optimal sample sizes for constructing tolerance limits are determined by minimizing appropriate cost functions.
This paper investigates the economic-statistical design of Shewhart control charts implementing skip sampling strategies for constructing subgroups and monitoring autocorrelated AR(1) processes.
Similarly, small sample sizes for constructing the social network might explain why the NBDA could not detect social learning in our study.
Another limitation of our study is that we calculated the discriminatory accuracy in the same sample used for constructing the predicted model.
