Host genomic correlations (Rg) between the 31 additive log-ratio transformed microbial gene abundances (alr-MGs) and CH4 (rgCH4), N3 (rgN3) and CLA (rgCLA) indices. The vast majority are favourable across traits, which indicate that an increase of CLA and N3 indices by genomic selection of the microbial gene abundances reduces CH4 emissions. Bars represent means and highest posterior density interval at 95% probability. For full names of alr-MGs, see Table S8
