Figure 5From: Genetic variability of transcript abundance in pig peri-mortem skeletal muscle: eQTL localized genes involved in stress response, cell death, muscle disorders and metabolismeQTL mapping on SSC1 (A) and correlogram of the predicted eQTL effects for the genes involved in the 133-149 trans -eQTL cluster (B). A. The chromosome-wise threshold of 1% (based on simulations) corresponds to the lowest LRT value of 8.6 on the graph. All the 49 eQTL on SSC1 are mapped. The trans-eQTLs are represented by narrow lines whereas the three putative cis-eQTL are represented by thick lines (COQ4, EEF1A1 and CR939593). B. The correlogram comprises the 31 genes with eQTL in the 133-149 cM cluster with the colored lines used for mapping. The correlogram includes a circle and an ellipse. Each circle is shaded red or green depending on the sign (+ and - respectively) of the correlation, and with the intensity of color scaled 0-100% in proportion with the magnitude of the correlation. The ellipse is a schematic scatterplot matrix and each panel depict the patterns of relations among variables with confidence ellipse and smoothed curve.Back to article page
