GWAS for Tannin levels in sorghum seed and direct hits to a priori candidate gene region. a Distribution of tannin content in 196 diverse accessions. b Manhattan plot for tannin content GWAS. Black arrows show associated SNPs located close to candidate genes. c Quantile-quantile plot for tannin content GWAS. d A close up of the significant association on chromosome 4. The broken red line represents the significance threshold. e and f LD blocks showing pairwise r2 values among all polymorphic sites in candidate genes region, where the intensity of the colour corresponds to the r2 value as indicated on the legend. Candidate genes Zm1 (~ 61.7 Mb region), Tannin1, TT16 and SCL8 (~ 62.3 Mb region) are shown
