Detection of tissues and cell types related to wool traits and live weight in sheep. a Functional enrichment analysis of tissue-specific genes (the top 10% of genes based on t-statistics) for 13 organ systems (central nervous system (CNS), cardiovascular system (Cardio), skin, muscle, liver, lung, kidney, gastrointestinal (GI) tract, endocrine (Endoc), immune system, male reproductive system (Male_R), female reproductive system (Fem_R), and embryonic system). bd Relationships between the six economic traits and the 13 organ systems, GI tract tissues and immune tissues, respectively. The colour corresponds to the enrichment degree (i.e., − log10FDR), which was computed by sum-based GWAS signal enrichment analysis based on the top 10% tissue-specific genes and a 20-kb extension. *corrected-P (FDR) < 0.05
