Fig. 2From: Discrimination between human populations using a small number of differentially methylated CpG sites: a preliminary study using lymphoblastoid cell lines and peripheral blood samples of European and Chinese originResults of the technical validation of eight PyroAssays. Twenty B-lymphocyte cell lines (10 from each population) were tested. The originally selected candidate pop-CpGs targeted in each PyroAssay are marked with *. Green – CEU population; blue – CHB population. Dots represent methylation levels in individual samples. Box plots denote mean value (lines inside the boxes) and standard deviation. Statistically significant (p < 0.05) population differences in the methylation level are marked in redBack to article page
