Supplemental Data: Heritability of 596 lipid species and genetic correlation with cardiovascular traits in the Busselton Family Heart Study

Full description

Supplemental Figure S1 - Correlation between genetic correlations of WHR (y-axis) and BMI (x-axis) for all 596 lipid species. Genetic correlations between lipid species and BMI that are different from zero at a false discovery rate (FDR) of 0.05 are shown with 'B', those between lipid species and WHR that are different from zero at a FDR of 0.05 with 'W', those different from zero at an FDR of 0.05 for both BMI and WHR are shown with 'A', and those genetic correlations not diferent from zero at an FDR of 0.05 for neither BMI and WHR are shown as circles. Abbreviations: WHR: Waist-hip ratio; BMI: body mass index, RhoG: genetic correlation. Supplemental Figure S2 - Correlations between genetic correlations of WHR (y-axis) and BMI (x-axis) for lipid classes that show opposing direction of effects. Genetic correlations between lipid species and BMI that are different from zero at a false discovery rate (FDR) of 0.05 are shown with 'B', those between lipid species and WHR that are different from zero at a FDR of 0.05 with 'W', those different from zero at an FDR of 0.05 for both BMI and WHR are shown with 'A', and those genetic correlations not diferent from zero at an FDR of 0.05 for neither BMI and WHR are shown as circles. Abbreviations: WHR: Waist-hip ratio; BMI: body mass index, RhoG: genetic correlation; SM: sphingomyelin; PC: phosphatidylcholine; LPC: lysophosphatidycholine; LPC(O): lysoalkylphosphatidylcholine; PE: phosphatidylethanolamine; Cer(d): ceramide.
