Figure 4

Genomic signatures of selection in each and all Tibetan pig populations. (A) Genome-wide distribution of LSBL values. From top to bottom panels, LSBL outliers are shown for each Tibetan pig population from Gansu, Tibet and Sichuan & Yunnan (SCYN) provinces as well as all Tibetan pigs. The chromosomes are plotted along the x-axis, and LSBL values are plotted along the y-axis. Chromosomes are indicated by different colors, and the threshold indicating signature of selection is denoted with a dashed grey line. The strongest candidate genes corresponding to the top SNP outliers are indicated by red arrows in each panel, and the gene names are labeled above the arrows. Two flanking genes (HFM1 and ZNF644) are shown for one intergenic SNP. (B) A heat map of allele frequencies at the top SNP loci for each and overall of the tested populations. A spectrum of heat map colors indicates different allele frequencies at these loci.
