Manhattan plots of genome-wide association studies to map a major QTL for porcine ear size. GWAS were performed in the White Duroc × Erhualian F2 resource population (a), Sutai (b), Laiwu (c), Duroc × Landrace × Yorkshire (d), and Erhualian pig populations (e). A meta-analysis of the GWAS was also performed across these five populations (f). In the Manhattan plots, −log 10 (P values) of the SNPs are plotted against their positions on the porcine chromosomes, with chromosomes shown in different colors for clarity. The solid line indicates the 5% genome-wide significance threshold and the dashed line shows the suggestive-significance threshold (5% chromosome-wide significance)
