The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Prevalence, comorbidity, and behavioral variation in canine anxiety (2016, background): “, 2008) and aggression (Liinamo et al., 2007; Trut et al., 2009), have been observed to have relatively high heritability values in dogs, and if no attention is paid to these traits in breeding, rapid changes may occur in small breeding populations.”
Breed differences in canine aggression (2008, background): “Recent heritability analyses of aggression in a population of Dutch Golden Retrievers found a weak correlation between estimated breeding values for C-BARQ ratings of stranger- and dog-directed aggression, suggesting that these traits are partially related but genetically distinct (Liinamo et al., 2”
Dog Breeds and Their Behavior (2014, background): “…have typically obtained highest values for traits reflecting anxiety/fearfulness, sociability, boldness, and various forms of aggression (Goddard and Beilharz 1982; Liinamo et al. 2007; Pérez-Guisado et al. 2006; Saetre et al. 2006; Scott and Bielefelt 1976; Willis 1995; Wilson and Sundgren 1998).”
