AngusGS genomic DNA test results are ranked on a 1 to 99 score for each individual trait measured. Scores are typically based on a score of 1 being the highest ranking for the trait and 99 being the lowest. As an example for CED (Calving Ease Direct) and CEM (Calving Ease Maternal), a score of 1 would indicate the very easi- est calving with a score of 99 being the most difficult calving. In the performance traits of WW (weaning wt.) and YW (yearling wt.) a score of 1 would translate to the heaviest weight and a score of 99 would be the lightest weight. A score of 1 with MILK would indicate heaviest milking and 99 would be lightest milking. In the carcass measurement traits of MARB (Marbling) and RE (Ribeye Area) a score of 1 would be most desirable and 99 least desirable. With TEND (Tenderness), a score of 1 would indicate a most ten- der meat end product.
