Inferred locations of differentially expressed genes and ACTH response related QTL on the porcine genome. Positions are given in Mb derived from the draft assembly of the pig genome (version 7). Black gene symbol denotes genes positioned by SJR using blast against pig genome sequence build 7, brown gene symbol denotes best position for a gene although not significant in the blast output (e-value < 0.0001). Pink are genes positioned in common by both build 6 and build 7 of the pig genome sequence, dark blue are genes positioned differently by build 6, orange are genes positioned by version 6 and human orthologues, green are genes that could not be positioned by human orthologues or build 6. Red bars denote confidence intervals for QTL associated with glucose, cortisol and ACTH from analyses by Desautes et al., 2002.
