Stacked Bar Plot Showing the Percentage of Total Heritability Attributable to Different Fractions of the Genome

We rank ordered all genomic loci by their explained heritability and quantified the fraction of total heritability attributable to different percentile ranges. Traits with high polygenicity (e.g., height and SCZ) tend to have bars with a height proportional to bin size, whereas less polygenic traits (e.g., RA and HDL) tend to have bars much larger than bin size.
