Average normalized reads count versus geometric means reads for two example regions. Individual cow alignments [23] for two ~ 860 bp regions. Panel a. demonstrates alignments for a region with high variability among cows on BTA19:57,555,882-57,556,746 and that is a significant environmental DMR, whereas panel b. demonstrates alignments for a region with minimal variation on BTA24:49,317,728-49,318,588. The identification of the cow corresponding to each panel is provided along with the total number of reads mapped to the region across all cows, the NRC, and μGMR
