Melanoma heritability stratified by chromosome

Heritability estimates for each chromosome are plotted against chromosome length. The solid line is the regression of heritability on chromosome length and the dashed lines represent the 95% confidence intervals for the slope of the regression line. Chromosomes 6, 9, 11 and 16 are outside the 95% confidence interval and have higher heritability estimates than that expected based on chromosome length.

Melanoma susceptibility is associated with chromosomes 6, 9, 11, and 16.
