The Identification of Loci for Immune Traits in Chickens Using a Genome-Wide Association Study

Fig 2

Manhattan plots showing association of all SNPs with six immune traits.

SNPs are plotted on the x-axis according to their position on each chromosome against association with these traits on the y-axis (shown as-log10 p-value). The red dashed line indicates suggestive genome-wise significance (p-value = 5.62E-05), and the black dashed line shows genome-wise 5% significance with a p-value threshold of 2.81E-06. Fig. 2-A, 2-B, 2-C, 2-D, 2-E and 2-F refer to plots for total serum IgY level, H/L ratio, number of Heterophils, number of Lymphocytes, SRBC antibody titer and AI antibody titer, respectively.
