Leveraging functional annotation to identify genes associated with complex diseases
Fig 3
More genes were identified as trait-associated by T-GEN across 207 traits from the LD Hub.
Applied to 207 traits from LD Hub, significant trait-associated genes were identified in 26 tissues (p-values threshold: 0.05 divided by the number of gene-tissue pairs). Each boxplot represents the distribution of the number of differences between that identified from our tissue-specific analysis and that identified from the four other methods.
