From: A role for heritable transcriptomic variation in maize adaptation to temperate environments
Broad sense heritability calculated from 19,565 genes among replicated maize lines, temperate panel and tropical panel. a Distribution of broad sense heritability (H2). b Two-dimensional scatter plot between heritability and Log2 of mean FPKM values across the population; level indicate the density of the data points. c Volcano plot of Gene Ontology (GO) terms that show significant distributional differences across the population. Statistical difference of the distribution between the H2 in study gene set and the remaining background set was conducted using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test for goodness of fit. p-values are adjusted for a false discovery rate (FDR) \(\le\) 0.05; a full list of GO terms with labels is provided in Additional file 2: Table S2. d Distribution of broad sense heritability of genes in the tropical and temperate panels; e Density of gene expression broad sense heritability in tropical (blue) and temperate (red) maize lines
