Manhattan plot of genome-wide association study results. X-axis: Position on bovine chromosome 27 in mega base pairs (Mbp) according to the UMD3 assembly. Y-axis: −log(EMP2), where EMP2 is the genome wide corrected empirical P-value determined based on 100,000 permutations. The horizontal line indicates the genome wide significance threshold. One SNP, HAPmap49086-BTA-22323 at 20.9 Mb, exceeds the genome wide significance level and the neighboring SNP approaches the genome wide significance level. All other SNPs on chromosome 27 and in the rest of the genome (data not shown) has a -log(EMP2) close to 0.
