Identified supervariants associated with 22 white matter FA phenotypes in UKB White British (n = 30,842). (A) Ideogram of genomic regions influencing white matter FA phenotypes, including 78 previously identified regions and 23 additional regions identified in the current study. The colors represent the 21 white matter tracts (and the global average). Each signal point indicates that this white matter tract is associated with the genomic region. (B) The number of supervariants associated with 21 white matter tracts in human brain. The color scale represents the number of supervariants ranging from one to 28 associated with this white matter tract.
