Fig. 1

Schematic representation of the proximal region of bovine chromosome 19 encompassing BH2. Association of 32 haplotypes with homozygosity depletion and postnatal calf mortality (a). Each horizontal bar represents a haplotype with homozygosity depletion. The grey shaded area highlights the most significantly associated haplotype (BH2). Green, orange and blue vertical bars represent 50 non-coding variants, one synonymous variant in PPM1E and one missense variant in TUBD1, respectively. Genes located within the BH2 interval (b). The grey shaded area highlights the position of BH2. Green and blue vertical bars represent six non-coding variants and the missense variant in the TUBD1 gene
