Fig. 3

Manhattan plots depicting the genome-wide significant associations between SNP markers and C16:0 and C20:3 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 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 that SNPs at SSC5 and SSC18 are associated, respectively, with C16:0 and C20:3 recorded in the GM muscle but not in the LD one
