Figure 1 Visualising a GWAS with a Manhattan plot. The horizontal axis shows the position of every locus that the microarray interrogates. The numbers denote chromosomes. The vertical axis is the negative logarithm (base 10) of the P-value (logP) of the association between phenotype and genotype. This plot is based on simulated data, but the experimenters would be pleased, as there are a number of peaks that exceed a genome-wide significance threshold (red line).
