Figure 5.
Manhattan plots and Q-Q plots showing association in the diverse reference set for 12 nutritional traits. Manhattan and QQ-plots depicted for (A) β-Carotene, (B) calcium (Ca), (C) crude protein, (D) folate (Fo), (E) iron (Fe), (F) magnesium (Mg), (G) manganese (Mn), (H) phytic acid, (I) vitamin B1 (Vit B1), (J) vitamin B2 (Vit B2), (K) vitamin B6 (Vit B6), and (L) zinc (Zn). Associations were detected with 73,968 SNPs using the BLINK method for all traits except Fe and Mg; associations for Fe and Mg were detected with 318,644 SNPs using the MLMM method. Black solid line indicates Bonferroni threshold at 5% level, above which significant associations are depicted as red highlights.
