Genome-wide association of short tandem repeat (STR) length variation and phenotypic differences. Each point represents an STR that is plotted with its genomic position (x-axis) against its –log10(P) value (y-axis) in the likelihood-ratio tests for natural variation in C. elegans lifetime fecundity (A), dauer formation (B), telomere length (C), responses to abamectin (D), albendazole (E), arsenic (F), bleomycin (G), amsacrine (H), propionate (I), zinc (J), and etoposide (K). STRs with significant adjusted P-values using the Bonferroni threshold are colored red.
