Figure 2.

Estimates of the variance explained by genic and intergenic regions on each chromosome for height by the joint analysis using 11,586 unrelated individuals. The genic region is defined as ± 0 Kb (a), ± 20 Kb (b) and ± 50 Kb (c) of the 3′ and 5′ UTRs. Error bars are the standard errors of the estimates. $h_{\mathrm{Gg}}^2$ and $h_{\mathrm{Gi}}^2$ are the variances explained by all the genic and intergenic SNPs across the whole genome. P(observed vs. expected): goodness-of-fit test of the estimated $h_{\mathrm{Gg}}^2/h_{\mathrm{G}}^2$ against that expected from the coverage of genic regions.
