Fig. 2

Manhattan plots depicting the genome-wide significant associations between SNP markers and C18:0 and C18:1(n-7) fatty acid contents in the gluteus medius (GM) and longissimus dorsi (LD) muscles of Duroc pigs. Negative log10 P-values of the associations between SNPs and phenotypes are plotted against the genomic location of each marker SNP. Markers on different chromosomes are denoted by different colors. The dashed line represents the genome-wide threshold of significance (q-value ≤0.05). It can be seen a strong association between SNPs on SSC14 (110–114 Mb) and C18:0 and C18:1 (n-7) recorded in both muscles (GM and LD)
