Fig 2. LOD curves for atherosclerotic plaque size at the arch.

Fig 2

(A) LOD curves for the arch lesion with sex as an additive covariate (black line) and as an interactive covariate (red line). X-axis represents chromosome number and y-axis represents the LOD score. The horizontal dashed lines represent the thresholds for significant QTL (P = 0.05) and suggestive QTL (P = 0.63) in the sex-interactive model. (B) LOD curves for arch lesion in males (blue line) and females (red line). The horizontal dashed lines represent the thresholds for significant QTL (P = 0.05) in males (blue) and females (red). (C and D) LOD curves for the arch lesion on Chr 2 (C) and Chr 10 (D) with sex as an interactive covariate (black), in males (blue) and in females (red). X-axis represents positions on chromosome (cM) and y-axis represents the LOD score.
