Characterization of IMF-correlated gene. (A). The density distribution of IMF content of 425 individuals. (B). Histogram of the Pearson correlation coefficients of IMF and gene expression level. The red represents the positively correlated genes and the blue represents the negatively correlated genes. (C). Scatter plot represents the distribution of correlation coefficients (X-axis) and – log₁₀ (p-value) (Y-axis). The red and blue colors represent positively and negatively correlated genes respectively. The gray dashed lines indicate the selected cut-off of FDR (FDR = 0.01) and the corresponding correlation coefficient. (D). Top 20 enrichment clusters of 212 IMF-correlated genes
