From: The strength of genetic interactions scales weakly with mutational effects

Figure 6

Comparison between the traditional and the geometric definitions of epistasis ( e and E , respectively). (a) Figure equivalent to Figure 2c, using the traditional definition of epistasis. (b) The fraction of genes interacting with a specific gene is a function of the growth rate effect of such gene. Only the 10,000 most interacting pairs the geometric definition (blue) and the traditional definition (red) are considered to be interactions.
