QTL scan showing LOD score (Y-axis) and genome position (X-axis) for susceptibility to P. aeruginosa infection. The x axis shows chromosome numbers, the y axis shows the statistical significance of the association measured as LOD, logarithm of the odds favouring linkage, a score that measures the strength of evidence for the presence of a QTL among the 160 mice of the F2 population, including F2-S and F2-R. The horizontal line is plotted at the 5 % significance threshold. One significant QTL (p = 0.037) named Pairl 1 was mapped on chromosome 6 at 90.8 Mbp with 4.3 LOD score, with a 1.5-LOD drop support interval of 81.5–102.2 Mbp
