Relationship between phylogenetic nucleotide conservation (PNC) and experimental annotations at SNPs. A Decrease in observed and predicted PNC over within-species variability, quantified by MAF in reference panel Hapmap 3.2.1 [15]. B Increase in predicted PNC in accessible chromatin regions, defined by MNase hypersensitivity in shoot or root tissues [21]. C Positive association between observed PNC and expression QTL effect (in absolute values) in shoot or root tissues, estimated in a diverse maize panel [22]
