Fig. 1.

Regional association plots showing RF and RF-RFE importance rankings of causal and correlated SNPs (r² > 0.10). The causal SNP in each plot is shown by the purple diamond, with the reference SNP number indicated above. A higher value on the y-axis indicates a higher importance score and better rank. a. RF importance rankings for chromosome 1. b. RF-RFE importance rankings for chromosome 1. c. RF importance rankings for chromosome 6. d. RF-RFE importance rankings for chromosome 6. e. RF importance rankings for chromosome 8. f. RF-RFE importance rankings for chromosome 8. g. RF importance rankings for chromosome 10. h. RF-RFE importance rankings for chromosome 10. i. RF importance rankings for chromosome 17. i. RF-RFE importance rankings for chromosome 17
