Fig 1. Parent-of-origin effects of APOB SNP rs1367117 on adiposity traits in JPS.

This figure illustrates the associations between APOB SNP rs1367117 and offspring BMI (top panel) and waist circumference (WC) (bottom panel). Adjusted means and standard errors (represented by error bars) for BMI and WC by genotype were determined using estimates from linear regression models adjusted for ethnicity and gender. Comparing offspring genotype effect (left panel), maternally-derived effect (middle panel) and paternally-derived effect (right panel) reveals a strengthened and more significant maternal-specific association with both traits.
