Figure 2

Subset of the association weight matrix for growth at the onset of puberty. Column wise, the AWM (association weight matrix) compares correlations between phenotypes, and row wise AWM compares gene-gene interactions. Cells within the matrix correspond to normalized additive effects of gene-associated SNPs as obtained from GWAS (genome-wide association studies). Squares of blue and yellow color gradients visualize the strength of standardized additive gene (SNP) effects. tw273: total body weight at month 9, dwg273: daily weight gain from month 6 to 9, C0: free carnitine, C2: acetylcarnitine, C5: valerylcarnitine, C81: suberylcarnitine, C14: myristylcarnitine, C18: stearoylcarnitine, PCaaC320: diacylphosphatidylcholine C32:0, PCaeC361: acylethylphoshatidylcholine C36:1, SMC202: sphingomyelin C20:2.
