Fig. 2 — Trascriptome-wide Association Study in UK Twins. Comparison of the results obtained in the transcriptome-wide association when the relatedness between subjects was evaluated using the family structures and when it was inferred from genome-wide SNPs by means of LDAK [12]. Left panel effect size estimates for the association between gene expression levels and BMI. Right panel estimated genetic ( $σ_{a}^{2}$ , in blue) and environmental ( $σ_{e}^{2}$ , in red) variances
