Length distributions. The top two panels show the length distributions of putative and confirmed CNVs, respectively. The smaller second peak in the putative and to a lesser degree in the confirmed CNVs reflects the longer CNVs identified in the secondary smoothed segmentation analysis. For comparison, the approximately 1,300 CNVs reported in the McCarroll et al. [14] study, which used Affymetrix SNP 6.0 arrays on 270 HapMap individuals including the 90 Yoruba, are shown in the bottom panel. Lengths are shown in log scale.
